This is one of many things to do with your family for Christmas! Your kids will love to drive or walk around the neighbourhood to see whose houses are lit up with colourful lights!

  1. I love the Christmas music all the Christmas movies, the time spent with family and especially watching the grandkids opening their gifts

  2. I do like the Poinsettia Ball Blown Glass Ornament. I would give that as a present to someone who is just setting up their first home.

  3. I think the kid in me never left because I still love interactive toys, so the Interactive Santa Plush is my favourite. I love the looks on my grandchildren’s faces when they find out there is more to these than just a cute character.

  4. I love Hallmark ornaments – the Poinsettia Ball Blown Glass ornament is gorgeous and would be a unique gift or addition to our own tree.

  5. I would love to buy the itty bittys santa Christmas countdown calendar. We buy at least one Hallmark ornament each year.

  6. My favourite thing about the holidays is the decorations! Everything looks so pretty. And and night the lights are just wonderful. 🙂

  7. Last night we watched this fireworks for New Year’s. I loved it! My kids were so in awe (and not afraid like the last time). Making memories – that’s the best part of the holidays.

  8. During the holidays I enjoy the activities like decorating sugar cookies with my grandchildren and seeing their smiles as they decorate.
