We’re pretty relaxed when it comes to doing crafts and activities though on occasion, I don’t mind doing themed/holiday crafts. And while I’m more than ready to dive into Christmas, I also realize that we needed to do some stuff for Thanksgiving. This is our first year really celebrating Halloween with Squeaker and this year will be the first year that I really involve her with Christmas. So what do we do for Thanksgiving? Well, aside from having her help with a few cooking tasks, we can do decorations. We started with a simple chalk handprint turkey craft to go along with our K-Cup turkey….

I’m not the craftiest person out there but I do like to occasionally tap into my creative side. One of my favorite ways to do that is by using K-Cups to make things. Sometimes they turn out to my expectations. And sometimes not so much. My latest attempt was to make a K-Cup turkey for Thanksgiving. Of course this could also be done by an older child but I don’t quite trust my toddler to use the glue gun yet. Depending on their age, this craft can be done completely by a child or it can be done with adult assistance. It really depends on your judgement and their craft ability level.

I have probably been in a Christmas frame of mind since the beginning of October. To be honest with you, if I could celebrate something Christmasy every day? I just might do it.

And of course, with watching Christmas movies. One of my favorite Christmas movies is A Christmas Carol so I have several adaptations of that. Christmas also isn’t quite complete without at least one viewing of the Nutcracker ballet. Maybe one year, Squeaker and I can attend in person. I also look forward to seeing what Disney will decide…
