[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We didn't do Santa in our house, except with a big wink-wink saying "Santa" filled our stockings. The way to make holidays special for kids is having defined traditions and spending time with them. A third-grader might like a gingerbread decorating project with you, or cookie icing/sprinkles. Maybe a special hike you do on Christmas Eve or visiting a Toys for Tots drop off with several toys. Special does not mean creating the illusion of magic; it means taking everyday things and highlighting the beauty of them with your kids. That's what they will remember.[/quote] This was lovely. Thanks! I will add that a happy and relaxed vibe is essential for building nice memories. [/quote]
