This is one activity you can cherish for life. Dress up in Christmas colours and plan a fun photoshoot. Ask your kids for some fun, innovative ideas for the photos, you’ll be surprised by the ideas kids can come up with! You can even create a photo booth with Christmas decorations and props. These photos make great keepsakes and even greater memories.

3. Bake Christmas cookies

The smell of freshly baked cookies is one memory that has been my favourite since childhood, it always brings back a warm feeling when I am reminded of it. This is one Christmas activity that is sure to evoke a lot of nostalgia when your kids grow up too. Let your child decide what type of cookie they want to bake and if they are old enough to make the cookie dough then let them do it. Toddlers can help you cut the different cookie shapes with Christmas-themed cookie cutters. 

4. Write letters to Santa

Letters to Santa is an all-time favourite tradition for kids. Join them in writing a letter to Santa, while the kids write their wishes to Santa, you can do so too, after all, you’re never too old to write letters to Santa. Just make sure you’ve been good all year! 

5. Have a paint party

Paint parties have become popular and something that both kids and adults can enjoy. Host your own family paint party. Get some easels, paints, and canvas and spend time painting with your kids. You can choose some Christmas-themed painting ideas to paint. Play some music, take snack breaks and enjoy the activity. You can even invite other family and friends to join the fun.

6. Go for a Christmas drive

Pack your kids into your car and go for a late-night drive around town to watch all the Christmas decorations and lights. You can sing along to some Christmas songs for more fun. Carry some snacks and beverages for the drive. 

7. Build An Indoor Snowman

Who says you need snow to build a snowman? Building a snowman indoors without snow is something I tried with my daughter because I didn’t want her to miss out on the fun experience of building one, something which I enjoyed in the mountains as a child. Living in cities like Mumbai where we don’t get to experience snow, this indoor snowman is the best alternative. All you need are two round paper lanterns and some coloured chart paper to create the snowman’s face and hat. Watch your child’s face light up with joy!
