On the one hand, the holiday weekend is designed for eating snacks in bed and watch TV series. And on the other hand — such leisure will definitely bring a couple of extra pounds instead of lamp memories. Let's break this system?
Let's still leave a couple of days for the digestion of Christmas dishes and the seal regime. Traditions must be respected, right? And then you can invent a few new ones. It is not necessary to invent something new — a drop of magic added to the usual activities will turn them into real holiday fun. And fun, as you know, is an excellent discharge for the mind and recharge for the body.
So how to spend winter holidays? Let's collect all possible ways!
Cosy Christmas activities
How many festive days off did you get? At least a week? Then choose a couple of items from the list below.
The more Christmas trees the better
After celebrating with your home Christmas beauty, why not go on a quest and visit all the available Christmas trees and Christmas locations in your city? Take your friends or relatives and go on a New Year's tree tour. And when you get to the next festive tree, be sure to take a fun selfie with the whole crowd and raise a toast with mugs of aromatic cocoa or mulled wine!
Time to eat tangerines
If we speak about Ukraine, Christmas and New Year — holidays that that smell like tangerines for each of us since childhood. And what child hasn't dreamed of eating as much these fruits as possible at least once? It's time to make this childhood dream come true! Make it your personal rule for this (and all subsequent!) New Year's holidays to eat tangerines for dessert every day. In addition to the fact that it is tasty, it is also useful: citrus fruits, vitamin C — you know everything.
And don't forget to strictly follow the tangerine rule. If you yourself or someone from the household evades it, will receive a sort of fine then — a double portion of tangerines!
Christmas movie marathon
It can be started on January 1. If you wait the whole year to rewatch the Harry Potter series? Now is the time! What films do you associate with winter holidays — "Home Alone", "Irony of Fate", "Real Love", "The Grinch"? In fact, films do not necessarily have to be purely devoted to New Year and Christmas, but they surely have to be absolutely charming, bright and kind. Make a longer list and enjoy.
Chilling by the fireplace
Is there anything that can create an atmosphere of charm better than lights? It is only worth it that they appear in all shop windows at the beginning of December and we, as a team, start waiting for the holiday.
You want to savor this atmosphere as long as possible, so light candles and garlands at home. And if you have a fireplace, then you are a real lucky person. No fireplace? Don't worry — you can always turn on the bonfire on your TV screen and arrange gatherings near it. Conversations in soft light are always cozier, and the palms of loved ones are warmer.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Something missing from lights and tangerines? Of course, special New Year's melodies. Here, as with movies, you can listen to traditional songs about snow and Santa, or you can listen to songs that you personally associate with the holiday. If you haven't made a magical playlist yet, now is the time. And turn it on every day: at breakfast or dinner, alone with yourself or in the family circle. Music is a special type of magic available to both wizards and muggles.
Breath the winter
Frosty air is a very useful thing, especially for residents of big noisy cities. And you have to have time to be inspired by them. Go to the nearest park to admire the winter, or better plan a trip to the forest for one day. Pack a thermos of hot tea with lemon, wrap homemade cookies and dress warmly. And also capture seeds in case of meeting with forest birds. And go for a walk, photograph the surrounding beauty and shake the snow off the fluffy Christmas tree branches.
Favorite New Year's treats
Since we're talking about cookies, why don't you make one of the traditional New Year's desserts for the holidays? Gingerbread with glaze is, of course, the leader of the hit parade. But there is also German stollen, Spanish royal cake, Danish almond-cherry porridge or Austrian Pavlova. Test your culinary skills with a new dessert and gather family or friends for a tasting.
Burning calories could be fun
If you're lucky with the snow, go build a snowman or play snowballs outside. Take a sled and go: ride down the hill. It doesn't matter how old you are. The inner child should be happy! For example, you can take her to the ice rink — this kind of joy can be available available in New Year locations and shopping centers of the city. Or go even further — rent skis or a snowboard and organize skiing in the most suitable place for this. Can't ski? Take a chance to learn!
Games evening
Another must-do item in the New Year's program for a large family or group of friends. Especially when you already have everything ready for this: a supply of tangerines, holiday playlist, aromatic dessert, and the apartment is decorated with lights. It's time to get together with loved ones and exercise your mind and imagination or just have fun together.
Board games are always fun, even if you lose. With them, time flies quickly and excitingly. In the process, you can discover some new talent in yourself. And the modern selection of games allows participants (even very adult and serious ones) to immerse themselves in a real adventure for the evening.
What do you think about our list? We probably forgot about the most important point of the plan — to warm up and give warmth: a glass of spicy mulled wine, a soft blanket and warm hugs. By the way, your main blanket experts have prepared something special in this case.
Festive blanket
The Limited collection brings together our most interesting designs — with unusual color combinations and original print ideas.
Merry is waiting for you here — the perfect blanket for holidays. Like all Woolkrafts blankets, it is soft, cozy and breathable. It has a cool print in the form of a Christmas tree, and also the optimal size of 140 x 200 cm, so that it is convenient to wrap yourself, a couple, or to warm up with the whole family. It will perfectly fit into the festive chill, where there is a fireplace, tangerines and a New Year's movie. And you can also take it for a winter walk and, wrapped up warmer, drink hot tea and admire the snow.
And of course Merry blanket is an excellent New Year's or Christmas gift for a friend, loved one, colleague or yourself. Check it out at our shop. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
