Christmas Games

Image
When planning Christmas games for young children, the options are endless. Make sure you provide room to run, do a little planning and the kids are sure to have a good time. Let's start with a few relay race ideas. Begin with a candy cane relay. Give each team 4 candy canes (and be sure to have a few more in case some break) and have the child who's running hold the candy canes between their fingers, with the crooked part of the cane hanging over their fingers. But tell them not to use their thumbs. The canes should be just carefully perched between their fingers. The children run to their teammate, exchange the candy canes (again, only using fingers), and that teammate runs to the other end and does the same. The game is over when only one team still has candy canes that haven't dropped on the floor. Another fun Christmas game relay race that kids love is pass the ornament.

Christmas Ornaments - glass ornaments It's one of the most exciting times during the Christmas season when the Christmas tree is brought home and the decorations start. Glass Christmas ornaments are the ones that are almost always used, even if there are other types, like Victorian ones or crystal ones, which are also used to spruce up the look of the tree. Most families accumulate decorations over the years, and every year some old ones give way to new ones. The idea of decorating Christmas trees started in the early 1800s when fruits and nuts were used as decorations. These, along with the evergreen tree, supposedly reflected the belief that despite the freezing cold, normal life would return in spring.
