Traditions add meaning and dimension to family holidays. At home,
it just wouldn't feel like Christmas without the advent candle lighting, or if we skipped the midnight church service on Christmas Eve. The good news is that even if your holiday season lacks special favors and ideas, it is never too late to create one. Select any one of the family activities and declare "a new family tradition"!
If you are in want of Christmas cookies time is flying past, it's okay to use refrigerator cookie dough. Really! The dressing and time spent together is what matters above the rest. Buy Gingerbread house kit. They come with all you need for a good ol’ fashioned treat. Buy more candy. Apart from that, it's a readymade tradition that comes quick!
You can supply the Bing Crosby and eggnog. Kits are great for family and that comes fun and easy. Read a Christmas fairy story each bedtime for the fortnight before Christmas. Stack everyone into the car, put on some wisping carols and accelerate to see
the lights. It's a 30 minute memory refresher.
Adopt a Christmas tradition from around the world. Teach yourself Christmas customs from several countries. What are the names for Santa, special recipes, games, parades and more.
