It’s time to spice up things to do this Christmas. With limited outings and fewer options, here are fun yet kind, simple yet innovative ways for a merry Christmas.
1. Arrange for a Drive-in Cinema
Instead of just watching Christmas-themed movies on your laptop, arrange for a drive-in movie night with your neighbours. Handpick tasteful films like It’s a Wonderful Life, Elf, Home Alone, Miracle on 34th Street. If you cannot decide, go with the Christmas special of Dr Who. That’s epic!
2. Wear a Jumper for a Cause
Confused about what actually is a Christmas jumper day 2022? Well, it allows you to dress up for a fundraiser. All you folks in the UK have a splendid opportunity to participate in a campaign to save the children by donating £1 or £2 on Friday 11th December. If you've missed out on it this year, be ready next year.
Apart from this, there are different charities to take part in. Search for donation drives and charities and giveaway needful essentials.
3. Be the Real Secret Santa
Spread some happiness around and become a secret Santa for the needy. Prepare some really heartfelt gifts (that are not too heavy on the pocket), set up a hot chocolate station, a cookie swap or something similarly sincere. The idea is to bring a smile to people. If you haven’t been doing that already, make it into a new Christmas activity and repeat it every year with fresher modifications.
4. Round up Out-of-the-box Christmas Gifts and Decor

5. Bake Some Home-made Goodness
As you sit surrounded by family and friends with that titillating Christmas vibe, forget about the calories and bake some love.
Huddle up with your kids in the kitchen and go on a bake-a thon. Split up in teams or put in joint efforts to bake cookies, cupcakes and gingerbread house. Not to forget, this traditional festive gesture is to spread happiness and what better way than drinking hot cocoa, or eggnog in cosy PJs near the fireplace. Oh, but wait! You can always surprise others with a batch of yummy Christmas treats.
6. Recycle and Save the Environment
As you gather in the tree room to make some DIY Christmas gifts cards with your family, take a moment to think if you can reduce, reuse and recycle. Don’t sweat it; it is super easy. Here are all the crafty and smart ways you can recycle Christmas cards:
- Make gift name tags.
- Cut out decor like gift chains, bunting, and hanging card tree decorations.
- Use images to create your own DIY Christmas card or collage.
- You can either take this creative route or go the responsible way and ask local authorities if they have provisions for recycling wrapping paper, plastic bags, etc.
