Write a letter to the Three Wise Men!

It is time to sit down with them and ask them if they have been good this year, take stock of all their achievements and victories and reward them, which is why looking at toy magazines and writing their letter to the Kings will make them stay excited until the most magical night of the year.

Read Christmas stories

What do kids not love to read? Therefore, sitting down as a family to read children’s stories about Christmas and all the customs and traditions that this special date brings with it, is a very beneficial option for the youngest of the house.

Donate toys and clothes

Why not? Christmas is also a time for giving, giving gifts and helping those most in need, that is why we can always teach our children values ​​as good as giving a little of what we have. We can spend an afternoon selecting toys and clothes that are no longer needed to donate. They will learn what generosity and solidarity is.

Ice skating

Surely you would have thought of this by now, but we couldn’t write this article without mentioning one of the most traditional activities that children love. Fun is guaranteed! In addition, it is a way of doing sport in an incomparable setting, due to the lights and the Christmas atmosphere.

Christmas carol singing and cooking

Something that all children love is singing. So, why not take advantage of the musical repertoire that Christmas has to offer and spend a fun afternoon singing Christmas carols as a family?

But before singing… how can you not have lots of treats out on the table prepared by you and your children? All hands to the kitchen! Time to make Christmas cookies or apple gingerbread, yummy!

Advent Calendar

You can surely understand how long the wait for Christmas is for your children! Therefore, to make the days more bearable, you can start an Advent calendar on December 1 so that your children can count the days until they receive their gifts. This activity allows them to open the window corresponding to the day, in which you can meet every morning and discover the surprise that is inside. Excitement every morning!

Watching Christmas movies with the family

On cold and snowy days, another plan that they would most want is to stay on the sofa at home, with popcorn, a hot chocolate and a blanket to do a Christmas movie marathon. Therefore, children will not be able to say no to being together on the sofa having a blast with the Christmas movies of “Home Alone.”

A visit to the Royal Botanical Garden!

What? A Botanical Garden at Christmas? Yes! In Madrid this space opens up every Christmas night to switch it up between music, Christmas lights, figures of light, etc. The entire garden is transformed into a typical landscape from a fairy tale!

Escape to the snow!

Snow is par excellence one of the best parts of the Christmas season and one of the elements that children enjoy the most, so… pack your bags and head over to a small hotel or rural house that is on the shores of the snow, to be able to go skiing, sledging, and to be able to throw lots of snowballs at each other! Laughter is guaranteed.

Visiting a Christmas market

Yes, although this year the capacity is limited and there are numerous security measures, these special markets will continue to appear in the cities. And, who can resist an afternoon among coloured lights, music, food stalls, Christmas decorations and Christmas carols? Your kids will love it!
