Looking for a fun way to celebrate the holidays and sneak in some learning? You’ll love exploring Christmas in England with your kids!
Learning about Christmas Around the World is a simple and exciting way to enjoy the season. These activities are engaging and give your kids something hands-on and full of joy. When my boys and I started learning about a traditional English Christmas, we discovered so many fun facts, from Boxing Day to classic carols.
We’re sharing our favorite books, music, food ideas, and printable activities. And I have a super cool way for you to boost your holidays around the world learning fun, too!
Learn About Christmas in England
A Christmas Around the World study during the holiday season is an awesome way to boost the celebration with kids. Your kids already have a ton of energy and enthusiasm about Christmas, right? Well, if your kids are like my boys, then they’re bouncing off the walls…
Why not help your kids channel that excitement into positive learning experiences? Use their interest to motivate. Capture their attention as you discover facts and traditions about another country.
Our Christmas Fun Around the World activities have sparked a curiosity in my boys to extend their research about different countries.
For example, when we learned about a traditional English Christmas, Smiley (my middle boy) wanted to know more about Boxing Day and why it’s celebrated. Jumping down that rabbit hole helped us learn new things that might not have ever been covered in our homeschool. Plus, Smiley felt super cool when he shared his new knowledge with our family.
Recommended Resources to Learn about a Traditional English Christmas
As with all of our Christmas Fun Around the World plans and activities, I spent a lot of time researching resources to use for our holiday learning fun.
My first spot to check is our local library system. My boys and I found some amazing books to learn about Christmas in England (and even ended up ordering a few to enjoy again and again!). Here are a few of our favorites:
