Christmas is fast approaching and vacation time for children. Therefore, we wonder how to entertain children during the year-end festivities.
Holiday season is the best time to share activities between adults and children.
The first of these activities is to return to mood the magic and festive spirit of this holiday, visiting shopping malls organizing beautifully decorated windows, which are an eternally renewed delight for children and their parents.
Some malls are also organizing areas consisting of a road lighting, decoration, show scenes from the Christmas movies, model trains and toys simulating real situations, static or interactive decorations, like a fire truck and firefighters to help victims of a fire or the express train station to Kings Cross Platform 9-3/4 bring Harry Potter and his friends at Hogwarts.
A little later, after to see Rudolph surrounded by elves and goblins relaxing on a fairy forest, we entered the great house of Barbie, which contains 35 rooms furnished to the eve of December 24. Do not bother, she is organizing a Christmas party.
Three more steps and we will enter the area Victorian Christmas dream: hundreds of teddy bears are playing in a beautiful area of green grass. Ten meters after them, we are approaching a bedroom where luxurious old fashioned porcelain dolls are sleeping in his crib.
At the end of this road, we met Santa Claus, sitting on a golden seat and wait for our children to communicate their wish list for him.
An image of Santa Claus holding our child on his lap closes this magical journey reminiscent of the taste and atmosphere of our own childhood. This tale journey will also become our first Christmas memory of the year.
The second activity will be the decor of our house and the tree Christmas. Is there a better holiday activity than this, that our children will remember when going to grow up and become parents? Without doubt, give them the desire perpetuating these traditions.
I remember the first time I decorated the tree with my mother and she told me not to touch the flocking which simulated the snow because he thought would cut my fingers. I did not believe him … When my son helped me decorate the Christmas tree for the first time, I told him not to touch the flocking and a second, taste and the atmosphere of my own childhood end of year holidays came back to me.
When decorating the tree and the house, we will install the crib that represents the scene of the Nativity. Children have not lost their primal instincts and the scene is often safer than beauty, as if he wanted to protect the baby Jesus twenty centuries after birth. To install the crib while supervising their work.
The nativity scene is also the opportunity to educate children about the birth of Jesus and the meaning of Christmas, and is a fun way to learn history.
Another object of the activity of the holiday season to share with our family is walking in the streets to discover the gardens decorated with Santa Claus in his sleigh, or raise the front of the houses, Christmas tree lights municipal and participate at the end of year Events organized by the municipality.
After a long and exhausting day, we will enjoy a warm evening watching a movie Christmas with our children, hot chocolate drink and eat waffles or crackers.
These are some of the core activities that create for ourselves and our children, memories of the holiday season that will last a lifetime.
