With 7 days until Christmas make the most of this week with your family and create a fun Christmas Bucket List!
The busyness of the season can sometimes change our focus to all the shopping and preparing for the holiday. We end up missing moments to stop and enjoy this special time of year for our families.
Last week I sat down and created a Christmas Bucket list for our family. I wrote down a ton of activities on slips of paper and put them in a little red bucket I had in our decoration bin, We pull one activity a day (some days 2-3 depending on how much time we have). It has really helped me slow down and have fun with my kids, celebrating and soaking up the last few days before Christmas Day.
Grab any container and write down your family bucket list of fun activities you want to do with your kids before Christmas!
