Decorate With Kids For All Of The Holidays
Decorating for each and every holiday is a great way to create memories with the kids. So many people fail to celebrate the less popular holidays, and instead focus only on Christmas and Easter – this leaves a lot of kids with little understanding about the different holidays. If you're looking for fun ways to decorate around the home, office and even your car, there's a few ideas below that could help inspire some creativity and give decorating for the smaller holidays a go.
Removable Window Graphics
If you've never used removable window graphics to decorate your home, office or car, you're missing out on a number of really great possibilities. These window graphics can be found in various sizes, can be made so that you can see through them and in nearly limitless printing possibilities.
One awesome thing about these graphics is the fact that they can be used over and over again. Another benefit is that if you can't find a print that you like, you can have pretty much anything custom made into a window graphic – even portraits can be transferred onto the plastic or vinyl.
Tip: You can use the window graphics on more than just windows – anything that's smooth can work – the shower enclosure, the mirrors – even the front of your dishwasher and stove.
Silk Flowers, Lights and Ribbons
Take a trip to your local craft shop. Look at the silk flowers, twinkle lights and ribbons that they have. You can find a color combination to represent all of the holidays in the year. You and your kids can have a great time making custom light strains with ribbons and flowers strung through them. It'll glow perfectly at night and really bring a splash of celebration to the house.
Research the Holidays Together
Sit down and learn about the holidays with your kids. Then, when you're all done learning, let the kids come up with ideas for decorations that go with the holiday. This is a great way to help the kids learn about and appreciate each holiday for what it represents. Who knows – maybe you'll learn something new too!
This can be a lot of fun – yes, it does take some extra energy, but these are the days you'll never get back. Embrace each day and celebrate with your loved ones every chance you get – even when you're decorating for the next holiday coming up in the weeks ahead.
