Keep Holiday Fun Simple & Special
If there's anything that I've learned as a mom of five boys, it is to keep holiday activities super simple and engaging. Anything complicated or overplanned becomes stressful and turns into chaos. Which is exactly the last thing you need during the holidays!
Now that my boys have expressed interest in word searches, I've been creating these free printable activities for every season and holiday. The boys love the challenge, and I love how it keeps them busy long enough for me to get something done.
I print out a few copies of this word search to add to my holiday collection - and encourage you to do the same! My boys will use these Christmas-themed words for spelling, vocabulary, and writing prompts.

- Visual discrimination skills

- Concentration and persistence
- Fine motor control
- Problem-solving strategies
- Vocabulary building (especially with holiday-themed words!)

Of course, I had to combine my boys' favorite holiday, Christmas, with their new favorite activity - word searches!
