Here's a few samples from CM consultant Bobbie Bower about taking time out of the hustle and bustle of Christmas to have a regular family night over the holidays.
- Look at a photo album of family memories.
- Or watch clips from homemade family videos.
- Begin conversations with "Remember when..." Tape-record a good memory and send it to the person who was part of it.
- Buy a new game as a family gift for Christmas. Open it early and play it together.
- Work on a jigsaw puzzle. Play Christmas carols in the background.
- Each family night, read aloud a few chapters from A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens until it's finished.
- Have each family member choose a Christmas carol, read one verse, and tell why it has special meaning.
- Make special cards for grandparents. Together, write a message on each card.
