Do your kids feel bad every time the holiday season comes because your house is dull? Well, it’s time to rev up the festive spirit again.
Steps
1. Have your child give you an idea of what they want on your house. Teamwork is always the best solution.
2. Look for the items in magazines. If they’re too expensive, or too big, look for something similar or look in another magazine to see if they have one that is cheaper.
3. Start planning. Once you have at least four decorations that match your child’s description, take a piece of paper and plan where to place everything.
4. Look through your front window to see what people can see through it. If the room is too big, place decorations like your tree, stockings and other decors in that room.
5. Show your children the decorations!
Tips
• Magazines at this time of year have decorations on sale that are usually pretty extravagant.
• When you hang your lights, get one of those poles that you hook the lights on to and then just let go of the button to put the lights on.
• Instead of blow-ups, try those light up reindeer, or something similar that is big and cute.
• If you want your house to be at least a little bit religious, try using white lights; if you want a colorful house, use colored lights!
