10 Best Christmas Activities With Kiddos Under Two

Are you a Midwest mom wondering what kind of Christmas activities you can do with your tiny humans under two years old?

You don’t have the time to add elaborate traditions or you have no idea where to start in creating traditions with a toddler?

Family memory making starts now by creating traditions during the holidays that your children will remember for years to come. Below I laid out ten age appropriate ideas on how your family can start creating memories and experience the magic of Christmas!

10 Best Christmas Activities With Kiddos Under Two

1) Read Christmas Stories

My daughter is all about Frozen and she definitely loves Olaf. PBS recommends these Heartwarming Christmas Books for Kids. I also added a little holly, jolly, Christmas, to this activity by wearing knee high Christmas socks that made me think of being an Elf. Mom’s, here is the perfect solution if you want to be Christmas Festive in and outside your home this holiday season.

3) Learn Preschool Christmas Songs

Baby Jesus Song
(To the tune of “Are you sleeping Brother John”)

2) Reenact the Meaning of Christmas and Eat Dinner by Candlelight

It’s so fun to act out The Story of Christmas with this Nativity Scene that I had growing up. I love also these black and green socks in an argyle print! Look no further for the perfect pair of holiday socks right for any office or family party. The only thing that’s missing on these timeless Knee High socks is a warm spot near the fireplace and a warmer mug of hot cocoa. That also sounds like the perfect excuse to get some extra cuddles with my kiddos!

4) Make Christmas Cards

6) Print Christmas coloring pages

You can find some fun pages to print here. I also think these fun Christmas socks featuring a green argyle print will appeal to any mom who wants to get into the spirit of the season! Are you ready to bundle up with your little kiddos for some winter wonderland adventures with these women’s crew socks? 

7) Donate Old Toys to a Family Shelter

Taking this step will teach your young toddler that the spirit of Christmas is love and giving. Some locations that welcome a new life on toys are: churches, goodwills, daycares and social services.

6) Support Your Immunity

Did you know that red peppers boost your immunity and contains twice as much vitamin C than oranges! WOW! You can also make the holiday season extra sweet with these Christmas green and white knee-high socks channeling your inner elf!

8) Create a cardboard gingerbread house

For granola moms do the following. Use cardboard for the house. Decorate it with 50/50 shaving cream and glue for the substitute of icing. Use buttons and pompoms to decorate your Christmas home. You can get more details here on creating your cardboard toy gingerbread house.

9) Visit a Reindeer

If you are in the St. Louis area you can see a reindeer at the following locations:

Old World Christmas on the Hill: Take selfie’s with a real reindeer 

St. Charles Missouri: Meet Santa’s Reindeer 

10) Add Space For YOU, MOM, To Have Some Self-Care

One of my favorite ways to relax as a person away from my kiddos is diving deep into a good fiction novel! Both of the socks below offer a cute touch to any holiday ensemble. May I suggest wearing these Christmas morning while opening presents around the tree? You’ll look great in all the photos!

I hope these toddler friendly Christmas traditions create some memorable memories for you and your kids! Moms don’t forget, you too can celebrate the holidays and these winter months rocking out these comfortable Christmas socks. This year I selected a handful of designs that I can model well into the Spring. Oh….and did I mention, if you are looking for a fun, colorful, gift or stocking stuffer for your female friends/family, knee high socks are a popular fashion statement that coordinates with almost any outfit. Go here for more information!
