If you don’t already have a Christmas tree, consider shopping for one with your family. There’s a special bond that comes with arranging ornaments and being creative with lights. So spend time decorating your home by ensuring every member of your family is a part of the decorating process.

3. Attend a Christmas carol

Carol services help infuse the spirit of Christmas by reminding us of the essence of the holiday. Christmas songs from the choir are a moment you want to share with the family. And you might just have a talented member who’s also part of the service.

The spirit of Christmas is also in giving. So consider giving to those in need this season. Volunteer as a family to make donations to shelters and orphanages. Gift food, toys, clothes etc Create wonderful Christmas memories for those who might not be able to ordinarily have them.

7. Prepare your Christmas meals together

Baking or making the famous Christmas rice and chicken? Involve everyone in the process. It could be as little as peeling seasoning wraps. However, it goes a long way in actively creating a wholesome meal.

10. Do a little arts and crafts

Whether you’re designing a Christmas card or creating ornaments, spend time with your family members designing these decorations. It’s a way to bring out the creativity in everyone.

And that’s how you have a little fun with the family this Christmas.

Remember the secret to having a fun Christmas is in ensuring that you have electricity at all times. Else, it might just feel gloomy.
