Share this story

While unwrapping gifts may be a favorite holiday tradition (especially for the youngest family members), there are so many wonderful ways parents can share the season together before and on Christmas with kids. Here are some creative ideas for family fun to celebrate the holiday countdown while keeping with the spirit of the season.

Ceiling Paper Snowflakes

Paper SnowflakesCreating your own DIY paper snowflakes is a wonderful winter activity that also doubles as a Christmas decoration for your home or tree.

How Kids Can Participate:

Older kids who can handle scissors can make snowflakes themselves, and younger kids can help fold the paper, and hang the snowflakes. To hang, simply thread a piece of string through on of the holes and tie. Place them all ove rthe house to create a winter wonderland indoors.

Get Creative:

Add a little festivity to your flakes by writing a fun activity idea in the centre of each one before hanging them up—something like ‘bake cookies’ or ‘make holiday placemats’. Help one snowflake ‘fall’ every day and enjoy the activity as a family. It makes for an ‘advent’ful holiday adventure.
