10 Unique Christmas Traditions to Start with Your Family This Year

Christmas is the perfect time to create meaningful traditions that bring joy, strengthen family bonds, and create lasting memories. While classic activities like decorating the tree and baking cookies are timeless, introducing new, unique traditions can make the holiday season even more special. Here are ten ideas to inspire you and your family to start new Christmas traditions this year.

1. Personalised Ornament Making

Each year, gather the family to create personalised ornaments for your Christmas tree. Use materials like clay, wood, or clear baubles that can be decorated with paint, glitter, or small mementos. Personalise each ornament with the year, a favourite memory, or a special design. Over time, your tree will become a beautiful archive of family milestones and shared creativity.

2. Reverse Advent Calendar

Turn the traditional advent calendar into an act of giving. Instead of receiving a treat each day, place an item into a box to donate to a local food bank or charity. This tradition teaches children about the spirit of giving and helps spread kindness during the holiday season. At the end of the month, deliver the box as a family to make the act even more meaningful.

3. Christmas Eve Story Exchange

Give each family member a small book or story to share on Christmas Eve. This could be a classic holiday tale, a short story, or even a handwritten letter reflecting on the year. Gather together to read them aloud by the fire or under the glow of the Christmas tree lights. This tradition creates a cosy, reflective moment before the excitement of Christmas Day.

4. Family Christmas Movie Marathon

Dedicate an entire evening to watching your family’s favourite holiday films. Create a festive atmosphere with blankets, pillows, and plenty of snacks like popcorn, hot chocolate, and gingerbread cookies. Take turns picking the movies to ensure everyone gets to enjoy their favourite seasonal classics.

5. Christmas Breakfast Challenge

Transform Christmas morning into a culinary adventure by hosting a family breakfast challenge. Each member can prepare a small festive dish, like pancakes shaped as reindeer, snowman-shaped eggs, or a colourful fruit salad. Enjoy a festive feast together and vote for the most creative dish (no losers, of course!).

6. Write Letters to Your Future Selves

Start a tradition of writing letters to be opened the following Christmas. Each family member can reflect on their favourite memories, hopes, and goals for the coming year. Seal the letters and store them in a decorative box to be rediscovered and read together next Christmas. This simple tradition encourages self-reflection and helps mark the passing of time in a meaningful way.

7. DIY Christmas Tree Scavenger Hunt

Create a scavenger hunt for decorating the Christmas tree. Hide ornaments around the house and write clues to lead family members to their locations. Once an ornament is found, it can be added to the tree. This playful twist turns a classic holiday activity into an interactive game for the whole family.

8. Outdoor Christmas Lights Walk

Bundle up in warm clothes and take a stroll around your neighbourhood to admire the Christmas lights. Make it more engaging by turning it into a treasure hunt—see who can spot the most reindeer decorations, snowmen, or houses with twinkling lights. Bring along a thermos of hot chocolate to keep warm and enjoy the festive atmosphere together.

9. Yearly Family Photo Puzzle

Take a festive family photo every Christmas, but instead of just framing it, turn it into a custom puzzle. Each year, assemble the previous year’s puzzle as a family, reliving the memories and watching your family grow through the years. It’s a fun, hands-on tradition that becomes more special as time passes.

10. Christmas Wish Jar

Place a decorative jar on your mantle and invite everyone to write down their wishes, dreams, or intentions for the holiday season and the year ahead. On Christmas morning, take turns reading the wishes aloud. This practice fosters gratitude and allows family members to support each other’s hopes and goals.

Conclusion

Starting new Christmas traditions is a wonderful way to make the holiday season uniquely yours. Whether it’s creating personalised ornaments, writing letters, or embarking on a festive scavenger hunt, these traditions will bring your family closer together and create cherished memories for years to come.

This Christmas, why not try one—or several—of these unique ideas and make your holiday season even more magical?

Dreaming of a winter wonderland escape? British Airways has unveiled a magical new addition to its winter schedule – direct flights to Ivalo, Finland, nestled within the enchanting Lapland region. This exciting development offers travelers a direct route to experience the Arctic Circle's breathtaking beauty, participate in thrilling winter activities, and potentially catch a glimpse of the mesmerizing Northern Lights. British Airways Unveiling Ivalo: Your Gateway to a Winter Paradise Departing twice weekly from London Gatwick starting December 3rd, 2024, these new flights operated by BA Euroflyer, British Airways' short-haul subsidiary, whisk you away to Ivalo, Finland's northernmost airport. Ivalo, a charming village on the Ivalo River, transforms into a winter wonderland during the colder months. Here's what awaits you: A Picturesque Winter Landscape: Ivalo boasts a captivating landscape blanketed in snow for a large part of the year. Imagine crisp winter air, snow-covered forests, and frozen lakes creating a picture-perfect winter scene. Thrilling Winter Activities: Embrace your inner adventurer with a plethora of winter sports activities available in Ivalo. Whether you're an expert skier or a snow bunny in training, hit the slopes, embark on a snowmobile safari, or try your hand at snowshoeing or tobogganing. Gateway to Saariselkä Resort: Ivalo serves as a convenient gateway to Saariselkä, a renowned resort village. This winter haven caters to winter sports enthusiasts, offering world-class skiing facilities and a vibrant après-ski scene. Meeting Santa Claus: For children (and adults who are young at heart!), a visit to the enchanting Northern Lights Village in Saariselkä offers the chance to meet Santa Claus himself and hand-deliver your Christmas wish list. Witnessing the Northern Lights: Ivalo's remote location offers an advantage – spectacular views of the Aurora Borealis, also known as the Northern Lights. Witness this mesmerizing natural light display dancing across the night sky, a truly unforgettable experience. Packing for Your Lapland Adventure British Airways understands the importance of convenience when traveling for winter sports. Thankfully, BA Euroflyer allows you to include your skiing or snowboarding equipment as part of your checked baggage, as long as the bag adheres to their size restrictions (190 x 75 x 65cm). British Airways' Expanding Winter Network The addition of Ivalo to the schedule reflects British Airways' commitment to offering diverse and exciting winter destinations. This new route joins Tromsø in Norway, announced last week, further enriching their winter offerings. Booking Your Lapland Getaway Roundtrip flights to Ivalo start from £345 and operate twice weekly until February 14th, 2025. Don't wait – book your winter escape to Lapland and experience the magic of the Arctic Circle! Beyond Lapland: Winter Sun Awaits in Larnaca In addition to the exciting Lapland adventure, BA Euroflyer has expanded its offerings with new daily flights to Larnaca, Cyprus, commencing November 4th, 2024. These morning departures with late afternoon returns provide travelers with a convenient option to soak up the winter sun in this beautiful Mediterranean island. This addition means Larnaca is now accessible from both London Heathrow and Gatwick airports, offering travelers greater flexibility when choosing their departure point.
