We’ve officially kicked off the holiday season! It is always the best because while it may be the one of the coldest times of the year, it can leave your heart feeling the warmest it has felt all year. A big piece of those warm, fuzzy feelings is the traditions your family does every holiday season. 

Does your family have holiday traditions you do annually? If not, don’t fret! Or if you’re looking for more traditions to make your own, we have your back! Here are 3 new holiday traditions we think your family should start this year:

Host a holiday movie marathon

Your holiday movie marathon can be a long, one day event or a month long series where you watch one movie on a certain day of each week. You can let everyone pick their favorite movie or randomly draw one out of a Santa hat. The best part of making the tradition is creating the rules! 

Having a movie marathon is also a great time to test out some new holiday cookies. Found a cookie recipe you may want to bake for your neighbors? A movie marathon night is the best time to get the whole family to do a taste test.

Volunteer locally for someone in need

Remember the season isn’t just about gifts! Take time to give back to your local community. Some ideas your family can do are collect canned foods, pass out holiday dinners, or clean up a neighbor’s yard.

Take a family trip to Skate Moore

Make a holiday annual trip to skate with us at Skate Moore. You can wear some tacky sweaters, funny holiday hats, or come in your best holiday onesie! If you want to extend this new tradition to your extended family, you can even rent out the rink for a private party! Now that is a fun holiday party!

We’d love to know what new traditions your family starts this holiday season! Be sure to let us know next time you hit the rink at Skate Moore.
