Why You Need This Holiday Movement Game
My boys become little bundles of energy and excitement during the holidays. The plates from our Thanksgiving feast are barely cleared off the table and all five boys transform into hyper messes.
And, by that point, this tired mama is ready to put up her feet!
Over the years of parenting this crew of boys, I've learned a thing or two. And sometimes, I even act on those lessons.
One of the first things I learned was to be armed with easy holiday fun activities to use with my boys. I'm talking open-and-go without prep work or much forethought. Because I've already got about fifty-three lists that I'm trying to get through before the holiday rolls around.
