It's so easy to get caught up in the preparations for the holidays. Shopping, baking, cooking, packaging, cleaning and chauffeuring to children around the world who need to go. As you make your list of things to do, be sure to include some fun activities that include their friends, family, co-workers and neighbors. After all, the camaraderie and the fellowship is a big part of the holiday season, so make sure you spend some quality time with the fun of it means to most of you.
Christmas Caroling is a fun way to include not only those that you already know, but a great way to break the ice and meet new neighbors and people. Print up a few words, enter a portable stereo with the music of Christmas, and tour your neighborhood singing Christmas carols. No matter if you are not the best singer. People of all ages can enjoy this tradition carried into the modern holiday season. If you do not feel comfortable caroling in neighborhoods or houses you do not know, consider having a mobile caroling bus that goes to the homes of people you know to carol. Take a bucket of candy canes or Christmas to go to the home you are leaving. You might also consider caroling on behalf of a charitable organization favorite. Building a secure donation bucket or a box that clearly shows the name and address of the organization that can help you. Some people may not be comfortable financially to you personally, and it is normal.
Mano a few strips of pre-printed paper with the organization's name, address and telephone number along with a brief statement about what they do, and encourage them to donate directly.
Ice skating is another great activity to do with friends and family. Not only does it promote getting some exercise, but it's a great way to spend time outside enjoying the crispness of the winter air if you live in the right climate. If you don't, most towns have local skating rinks. Check their schedule in advance and send out invitations to several family members or friends and make an afternoon of it.
Consider encouraging your friends and relatives to join in a tour of volunteers to help a local nursing home or shelter home this holiday season. You can sing carols with the residents of the nursing home, or help dish out hot soup bowls and pass out blankets for those in need. If you know a family in need this holiday season, perhaps their friends and relatives could put together a holiday gift basket and fill a laundry basket of food, baked goods, and treats and small gifts for Christmas children of the family. It is a good way to teach children the importance of reward their community and help those who are less fortunate then themselves.
Remember the reason for the season, and spend time with their friends and family, and maybe even help others in the process. Have a great party! - 16003
