[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanksgiving was just the four of us- my husband and I had a great time but kids missed seeing relatives and said it felt like any other day.  Christmas Eve and Christmas Day will just be us this year as well.  Every year we have travelled to family and it’s days on end of cousin time, friends, parties, Santas.... I’m struggling to make it special and create our own traditions.  My kinds are 4 and 6.  They aren’t into driving around to see lights.  They just want to play with other kids [/quote]

I am so sick of the baby parents who are incapable of explaining to their children that there is a PANDEMIC AND IT KILLS!  By  all means go see grandma for Christmas a dbtgem
N go to her funeral two weeks later.

Christmas is special by itself.[/quote]

Yup! This morning, our 4 year old asked, “Why did Larlo come to our house a long time ago but he can’t come now?” We just said, “Because of coronavirus. When everyone gets the special shot that the scientists made to help us not get coronavirus, Larlo can come over. But he can’t come over now. We don’t want to get anyone sick and we don’t want to get sick either.”

It’s not hard to explain to them.[/quote]

I never said it’s hard to explain to them and they completely understand why we aren’t spending time with friends.  They aren’t complaining- I’m just trying to come up with new traditions.  I’ve never been here for the holidays, not from here so was wondering if there are any sort of activities in the area.[/quote]
