With COVID and Lockdown taking centre stage this year, my bucket list posts have been put on the back burner but after much deliberation, I decided to share our Christmas one because there is still so much we can do despite how life is at the moment - it'll just feature more home-based activities than usual.
I like to keep my bucket lists filled with things that are easily accomplished be it big or small. They also give me the push to do a little more when all I want to do is hide from the cold with a blanket.
So here are a list of things I'm hoping to do with family this Christmas, I'd love to know what you have planned too.
- Drink hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows
- Bake Christmas treats like cookies, mince pies or a Christmas cake
- Write a letter to Father Christmas
- Read Christmas stories
- Buy Christmas candles
- Wear matching Christmas pyjamas
- Make a gingerbread house or make gingerbread stars
- Create a Christmas playlist and dance around the kitchen
- Watch as many Christmas films as possible
- Decorate the house together
- Go for a walk to look at neighbours Christmas lights
- Wear a Santa hat
- Make handprint ornaments
- Spend the afternoon doing Christmas crafts
- Have a family games night with Christmas Monopoly
- Spend the evening writing cards and wrapping presents
- Go for a crisp winter walk
- Buy our 2020 Christmas ornament
- Make reindeer food for Rudolph
- Cut out snowflakes and decorate the windows
- Make s'mores (dairy-free!)
- Create our own Winter wreath
- Make cinnamon playdough to play with
- Leave mine pies and milk out for Father Christmas
- Take lots of photos for a Christmas photo book
What are you looking forward to this Christmas?
