Bake and Host a Cookie-Swap Party
Gather with your friends and family for a festive cookie swap, where everyone brings a batch of homemade cookies to share. Trade recipes, sample new favorites, and head home with an assortment of holiday treats.
Drive or Walk a Neighborhood Light Tour
Bundle up and explore neighborhoods decorated for the season. Bring along a cup of hot cocoa and enjoy a simple holiday outing.
Make Your Own Holiday Cards
Break out the markers, photos, stickers, or scrapbook supplies and design your own holiday cards. Handmade cards are a thoughtful way to share holiday wishes while adding a personal touch that friends and family will love.
Host a Holiday Movie Marathon
Settle in with popcorn, holiday treats, and a lineup of festive films. Keep everyone entertained by choosing three movies, such as a childhood classic, a family favorite, and a wildcard pick that brings something new to the tradition.
Try Snow Art
You can turn fresh snow into a colorful canvas by mixing water with food coloring in spray bottles, droppers, or bowls then applying it to snow. Make patterns, shapes, or paintings and let your creativity come to life.
