I have always loved
Christmas. Since becoming a parent I love it even more. Christmas can
be such a magical time and I love that I have a little family to
experience it with.
Over the years we have
created our own little traditions that we enjoy as part of the build
up to the big day. During this magic time of year we love to try to
make the whole of December a truly magical, fun and exciting time for
the children.
We decorate the
Christmas tree with sparkling decorations that include special
decorations and baubles that have a little extra special meaning to
them such as personalised decorations, first Christmas bauble, and
the children’s homemade decorations. We go to Christmas fairs and
watch in wonder as the Christmas lights are turned on in the town. We
visit Santa in his Grotto and also remember those less fortunate than
us by giving new toys to local charity toy appeals. We enjoy our
friendly elf staying who has his friends pop by every once in awhile
to check up on how well behaved we are, with the visiting elves
leaving little jingle bells of magic behind in their wake. We love
our traditional Christmas eve box and personalised Christmas books.
To make the magic of
Christmas extra special and help bring Santa alive to the children we
also include Portable North Pole as part of our family traditions at
Christmas.
