Make something! Whether it’s cooking, making crafts, or building model cars, making something with your kids is a great way to spend time together. Be sure to pick a project that will interest them as well.
See a Holiday Show! Here in Myrtle Beach, there is tons of live entertainment with a Christmas theme. You can have a similar experience without professional theatre groups. Local high schools, colleges, parks, and churches often produce holiday shows. They may lack some of the bright lights and quality acting, but the value here is in the quality time you’re spending together.
Give something together! Maybe your local soup kitchen could use some help, maybe you have some things to donate to a local community service drive, maybe you make crafts to give as Christmas gifts, either way, showing your children a lesson in giving is an invaluable lesson.
Join them in getting messy, destroying something, or freely dancing /singing! We added this strictly for kids’ enjoyment. Remember when you were a kid and you wanted your parents to ‘let loose’ just a little? Please note: with the singing and dancing - skill and appropriate timing are necessary. We wouldn’t want to embarrass the kids, or maybe we would, lol! It is something to consider.
GO CAMPING! Of course we’re a little bias, we’re recreational people and we work at a campground, but that doesn’t change the fact that some of our fondest memories are from times camping with our family.
