I absolutely love this time of year – the sights, the sounds, the smells, all of it. My favorite part, though, is that there’s more of a focus on spending time as a family. Life’s so busy, we don’t get that as often as we’d like, so it’s nice to do extra activities together during the special time of year. If you’re looking for some fun ideas –  maybe an activity each day to do as a family – for this holiday, then you’ll love our Free Printable Christmas Bucket List for Families. There’s 25 wonderful, festive activities to do together – plus three different styles of printable so you can choose the one the best first your style or Christmas decor!

I know families typically have their own traditions or things that they do together every Christmas season, so perhaps some of the activities will be familiar – but hopefully there’s plenty of new ones to add to your family celebrations. I tried to include a variety of things – some that take more time, some that are quick and simple – as well as things most anyone can do. For example, we Texans would have a more difficult time sledding or building a snowman, so I tried to avoid those types of things. Ice skating was sort of an exception, since many places (even us warmer, snowless spots) have an ice rink somewhere – even if it is indoor.

This is certainly not an all-inclusive list, as there’s countless holiday activities you and your family could enjoy together this season! We mixed it up to have some crafts, food, relaxing evenings, service projects and more. After all, this season is all about family AND about giving, so I wanted to make sure to include that, too.

We’re so excited to tackle this list with our kiddos, and hope to make more wonderful memories this holiday.

What’s your family’s must do activity during the holidays?

It’s that time of year, when kids are getting excited to write their letters to Santa telling him what they’ve done to be extra good that year, and what they’re hoping to find under their tree on Christmas morning. You know I love a good printable, so couldn’t resist whipping up these beautiful and classy Santa Letter Wish List Printables to share with y’all!

In previous years we did more of a ‘fun’ version of our wish list printables, but this year I was in the mood for a more clean and classy look. Still full of holiday colors and designs, but that would be styled perfectly for teens and adults, not just kids!

The three styles are also very different from one another, so hopefully we included something for almost everyone with these. From green garland with accents, to sparkly red and snowflakes, to a beautiful blue with colorful ornaments, we had a blast and are really excited how they all turned out! They’re designed for 8.5×11 prints, and we made sure the writing area had enough space for larger handwriting.

First off, there’s our ornament wish list printable. I love the wintry coolness of this one.

Second is a pretty red glitter background with bright snowflake accents and a swirly Merry Christmas.

Last – but probably my favorite – is the green garland with different nut, berry and ribbon accents along top and a cool grey wooden background. To me, it just screams classic Christmas!
