Just one look around, and you can tell that “It’s Beginning To Feel A Lot Like Christmas.” There’s a chill in the air, and glimpses of the approaching holiday are starting to pop up in stores.
But this year is different. Something wonderful has happened this year that will change your Christmas holiday forever. You’re celebrating your “First Noel” with baby. I’m sure you can’t help thinking about what Christmas was like when you were a child. Whether you baked Christmas cookies together or had the early fun of opening one gift on Christmas Eve, family traditions were and still are a big part of the holiday celebration. Growing up, there seemed to be magic in the air just thinking about Christmas, and now you get to create that same kind of excitement with your little one. Your baby is much too young to remember his or her’s first Christmas, but it’s a great time to begin some family traditions that he will remember for a lifetime. Here are some creative ways to establish some new traditions this Christmas.
Twelve Days of Christmas: Who wouldn’t love to have a gift every day? Using this popular holiday song as inspiration, you can give baby (and other family members) a small gift each day until Christmas. Simply hang a personalized Christmas stocking on the mantle and fill it with a little treat every day. Not knowing what to expect or when to expect it, each surprise gift will be a wonderful way to make the holidays even more magical.
Angels We Have Heard On High: Even the angels are singing about your little bundle of joy. So why not join in the celebration? Baby’s first Christmas is the perfect time to begin commemorating each year with an adorable Christmas ornament. Whether you choose Mommy’s Christmas Angel or one of our other personalized Christmas ornaments, it’s sure to be the start of a glorious holiday tradition.
Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree: If you’re going to open one gift on Christmas Eve, it’s got to be this adorable rocking horse gift basket. Year after year, your family can stave off some of the holiday excitement by choosing one present to open before Christmas. If baby could, this one would definitely be first pick! All decked out with Baby’s First Christmas clothes, bibs, bottles, rattles and more, the classic wooden rocking horse will surely be ridden to lots of imaginary places or it can help decorate baby’s room.
No matter which tradition you decide upon, you’ll definitely create a lifetime of memories. Capture every delightful moment along the way and treasure it in a lovely photo album so that you can relive the memories year after year.
