One of our favorite Christmas traditions is the 12 Days. It’s been a couple of years since we did this — last year we had to compress down to just 4 for a variety of reasons — so everyone was happy to see its return.
A small sampling of the prizes this year:
- 3-year Q-and-A journals and nice pens
- Crafting projects
- New PJs and clothes
- Meaningful tree ornaments
- Bowling
- A bazillion bookmarks
- Jólabókaflóðið
- A bevy of board games
- A basic sport-court setup
- Items from the UNICEF Market
- A sous vide
…and more. Becky put her organizational skills to the test with this – it took a couple of months of sustained tiny efforts, and she has a whole Trello board to keep it under control. The success of this tradition is entirely hers.
We have those q&a books. I think my kids were too young when we started them though. Glad you are getting back to traditions!
