Christmas is a joyful time for many reasons – and it’s the perfect time to get together and be creative. Here are some of our favourite activities that you can do with your children this Christmas!

Ice-skating

A festive favourite! This is a fantastic activity to do as a family this Christmas, simply look for your nearest rink and hit the ice! Check out this list of the best ice rinks in the UK to see if you live nearby one!

Carolling

If you’re feeling really traditional, you can take a stroll around your neighbourhood and impress your friends with your singing skills! Carolling is age-old tradition across the world – and a brilliant opportunity to have fun with family and friends. National Carolling day is on the 20th December –it’s the perfect time to go!

Make Homemade Christmas Cards

Take the afternoon to relax and create your own Christmas Cards. This is not only a fun activity, but is also very practical – as you can impress loved ones with personalised cards! If you don’t have time to do Christmas crafts at home, you can book your child into our Winter Camps!

Making Paperchains or Christmas Bunting

Another brilliant way of encouraging creativity is through Christmas crafts. Head to your local crafts shop and get the bits to make a paperchain or some Christmas bunting with the kids! It’s a super affordable and stress-free activity.

Candy Cane Hunt

A simple yet effective idea is to create a Candy Cane Hunt in your home! Get a selection of candy canes from your local supermarket and hide them around your house. Your children will have a great time trying to find them all – and be rewarded with sweet treats.

Cuddle up with a film!

At the end of a long day, get comfy and pop on your favourite Christmas film. We love Miracle on 34th Street, How the Grinch Stole Christmas and The Santa Clause trilogy.  (Hot chocolate and snacks are essential for this one!)

My four year old loved his time at Camp. He asked that I do not pick him up early from camp! Says it all really.
