Activity 3: Custom Christmas T-shirts

What better way to celebrate than wearing the celebration, haha! This Christmas, encourage kids to take a plain white shirt and a bunch of acrylic colours with a paintbrush. All they have to do is draw Christmas-related figures, such as Santa, and Santa’s Cap. Santa’s reindeer, Christmas trees, snow, etc., on the t-shirt. You can even gift these custom t-shirts to your near and dear ones.

Activity 4: Bake Cookies and Christmas Cake

Discuss and choose some cookie recipes and cakes. Explain to the kids about cooking or baking with parents or other siblings and adults at home.

Activity 5: Write a Letter

Christmas and New Year are fun and joyous times, spent with family and friends, looking back at the year gone by. This Christmas, write a letter of gratitude to your partner, parents, and friends and thank them for their contributions to your life. Also, ask your kids to do the same. Help them think of all the instances where people around them assist them. This will inculcate positive thinking and gratitude in the children.
