🎅🏻 Christmas with Little Ones



Hi Reader!

​

Is it just me, or did the holidays sneak up on us again this year? 🎄 I can hardly believe it’s already time to plan all the festive fun - but if you’ve got little ones at home, now’s the perfect time to organize the chaos (in the best way)!

I’ve pulled together a few tried-and-true blog posts that are packed with easy, meaningful ways to celebrate Christmas with toddlers, babies, and younger kids. From gift ideas to festive books and activities, these posts are full of simple inspiration to make the season feel magical for your whole family.


We’re throwing it way back with a true oldie-but-goodie on the blog! I first wrote this post when my now 13-year-old was just a baby - I was in full new-mom mode, trying to come up with sweet, meaningful ways to celebrate her very first Christmas. I decided to share the list, and to this day, it’s become one of my most-loved holiday posts.

It’s full of simple ideas for making baby's first Christmas feel special (without going overboard). If you’ve got a little one at home this season - or just love a nostalgic holiday read - you’ll want to give this one a look.

Building on that first Christmas post, I’ve put together a full list of fun, meaningful ways to celebrate the season with your toddler or preschooler! From easy holiday activities at home to simple ways to spread kindness in your community, there’s something here for every family.

And just like in the Baby’s First Christmas post, this one includes a free printable activity calendar to help you plan out the fun. It’s a great way to make the season feel intentional, without overwhelming your already-full December.


I hope these posts help you celebrate the holiday season with a few kids you love. Here's to a Merry Christmas!
