I also include silly Christmas socks or matching slippers to match. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">We even take it a step further in our family. Since the bio families of our kiddos often time are still involved.

Each stage is so fun to partake in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">With that said, easy ideas for little ones such as toddlers to do for Christmas are some of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Make a Christmas Ornament<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fostertoadopt.com\/how-to-make-a-fingerprint-christmas-tree-craft\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Christmas Craft<\/a><\/li><li>Help Decorate the Tree<\/li><li>Visit Santa<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Another really fun way for toddlers to do something fun for a holiday tradition is to dress them up in adorable Christmas clothes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Whether it be an Ugly sweater, Rudolph costume, or others. As well as, you could take it a step further and teach them an easy Christmas song. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">In return it is a fun thing for them to do and yet a fun thing for you to post for Christmas spirit and share for your family and friends to view on social media.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, you could do this every year with the same song and when they turn 18 put all of the videos together and watch as they grow and their voice changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Preschool_and_Elementary_Holiday_Traditions\"><\/span>Preschool and Elementary Holiday Traditions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s the sweetest time of year for so many kids and being young and full of Christmas spirit is some of the best times in a child&#8217;s life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, creating magicial moments for this age is so important and just plain out FUN!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Last year, when our kids got off the bus. Each one of our school-aged kiddos get off the bus at different times. There as, each child got to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourholidayon.com\/how-to-celebrate-winter-break\/\">experience this!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">All I did was cover empty boxes with green wrapping paper and made a star out of poster board. My husband and I each held an end of the streamer and as the kids got off of the school bus they got to ran through the streamers and knocked over a diy giant Christmas tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.getyourholidayon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/diy-tree.jpg?resize=500%2C750&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"diy Christmas tree made out of wrapping paper with a star out of poster board and streamers.\" class=\"wp-image-12854\" width=\"500\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.getyourholidayon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/diy-tree.jpg?resize=333%2C500&amp;ssl=1 333w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.getyourholidayon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/diy-tree.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.getyourholidayon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/diy-tree.jpg?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption>DIY Christmas Tree made out of cardboard boxes, wrapping paper, and paper.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Oh my goodness did they laugh and giggle! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Middle_School_and_High_School_Holiday_Traditions\"><\/span>Middle School and High School Holiday Traditions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">This stage the kids are getting older and as most of them don&#8217;t want to admit they still want to celebrate Christmas with traditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">From experience, my own kiddos my oldest is almost 15 and she loves decorating for Christmas, baking gingerbread cookies, and still partaking in a candy cane hunt!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, she was the one that helped with my grinch <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourholidayon.com\/get-in-the-spirit-with-grinch-games\/\">craft &amp; games<\/a> and she loved it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Some ideas that you could use for this age would be&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Gift them an Ornament<\/li><li>Streamers on the door are still fun to break through<\/li><li>Bake Christmas Cookies<\/li><li>Let them put the star on the tree<\/li><li>Take them to see Christmas lights somewhere new and grab hot cocoa on the way from Starbucks!<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">It doesn&#8217;t matter what age you are at kids and adults all love celebrating Christmas!
