6. The 5 Step Action Plan for Traditions

The Holiday Headstart

In this exciting episode, we're diving into the planning and preparation of holiday traditions. Have you ever considered all the details that go into planning traditions or activities? We have! And our Holiday Headstart Action Plan is the perfect tool for getting all the details out of your head and into reality. Join us as we put our Action Plan into action and use it to plan our new Reindeer Games Tradition.

We walk through the big details (when and where is this happening?) and the tiny details (are we going to have enough pretzels?) to make sure that we’ve accounted for all the ups and downs that come with planning a family activity.

We also reflect on last year's highlights and explore new ideas to make this year’s event even more memorable. Stay tuned for tips on managing holiday traditions, fun activities, and how to maintain a low-stress, high-fun environment. Let’s get a head start on making this holiday season unforgettable!
