The holidays are a wonderful time for embracing traditions. At Alabama Graphics, we’ve been talking a lot lately about each of our families’ traditions. All families are different, but we all have one thing in common – we enjoy the holidays and making them special! Since Christmas is only a few days away, we’d like to share a few of our holiday traditions with you.
Go caroling. It may sound a little hokey, but Christmas caroling reminds us of a simpler time. Grab the family and go to a few houses singing some of your favorite holiday songs. Or, if everyone tends to be a little tone deaf, carry your iPod and some speakers with you and go “makeshift” caroling – your neighbors will get a kick out of your creativity.
Be thankful. Thanksgiving isn’t the only time of year we should stop to count our blessings. Let everyone write down a few things they’re thankful for while the family sips hot chocolate. It’s a great way to remind yourself about the true spirit of Christmas.
Set out cookies for Santa. This may not be a unique tradition, but baking cookies and leaving a few out with a glass of milk for Santa is fun for children of all ages. Leaving some carrots out for the reindeer, as well as a little note for Santa can complete your tradition!
We at Alabama Graphics wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!
