The holiday season is the perfect time to be joyful and spend time with the ones you love! With so many jolly and happy occasions that come with this time of year, you can't help but want to spend time with the ones you love. Whether it may be your boyfriend or girlfriend, your best friends, or your parents, there's no better time to make time for the important people in your life! Below are my favorite December "date" ideas!
1. Building a Gingerbread house.
There's nothing that reminds you of your childhood and fun times as much as building a gingerbread house does! Plus, it's a yummy activity to partake in!
2. Decorating the Christmas Tree.
Nothing screams "holiday spirit" as much as decorating the Christmas tree with your loved ones. Looking at old homemade ornaments and taking a trip down memory lane is easily one of the most fun holiday activities!
3. Building a Snowman.
After a heavy snowfall and road closings, there is nothing better than connecting with your inner child to build a cute little snowman or to have a snowball fight!
4. Hot Cocoa, Fire, and Christmas Movies.
After a cold day in the snow, what's a better way to warm up other than hot cocoa and a fire? Not to mention that this is the perfect time for a Christmas movie marathon!
5. Baking Cookies.
The holiday season is the perfect time for baking! So grab your significant other, put on some Christmas tunes, and get to baking!
6. Looking at Christmas Lights.
My all time favorite Christmas activity is looking at lights and decorations! You can easily find the hottest places on the island, or if you don't feel like driving all over, you can go to the Holiday Lights Spectacular at Jones Beach!
7. Santa.
I don't care how old you are, if you say you don't get excited to see Santa on the firetruck throwing candy canes, you're lying.
8. Visiting the Tree in NYC.
It's a Christmas tradition to go to the city and visit the tree when it's all lit. You can even go ice skating around the tree if you're feeling extra spirited!
