[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are a few low to no cost activities my kid love--would work for varying ages:

- We have a book of Christmas cookies. Everyone chooses their favorite and we make it.

- We watch a favorite holiday movie with free printable bingo cards. Right now, my kids are teens and we do Die Hard. You should be able to find Home Alone or Elf and probably ones too.

- Paper chains, orange slice ornaments, [/quote]

oops- submitted too early!

- Paper chains, orange slice ornaments, salt dough, cinnamon/applesauce dough ornaments.

- Coloring pages - this is only fun for one of my kids but she really loves it. Print a few coloring pages. Put on Christmas music. Sit at the table together and color.

- Christmas parades are free

- We go look at holiday lights, like many do. My teens are not so into it anymore, but I've been thinking we could make it a game, like if we had a list of things that you often see when you're driving around (burned out light, house with inflatables, house with blow mold lights, house with Snoopy decorations etc.)

- Go check out a bunch of winter and Christmas themed books from the library. Put them in a basket and read one each night.
