Looking for the recipe for a perfect holiday this year?
Traditionally, a recipe refers to baking and cooking. However, What is a recipe? A gathering of ingredients and combining them to make the end result even better.
Here are some non-traditional ideas for the recipe for a lovely holiday season.
This year, perhaps you would like to gift an experience, instead of an item:
How about a family board game night?
Santa’s bag never held so much old-time FUN. Watch little eyes get big and smiles appear with non-electric toys, board games and puzzles! They entertain and delight all ages and provide a welcome break from the ever-present technology. These games don’t have sound effects, they don’t use batteries and you don’t need a computer to make them work. Instead, they encourage creativity, pretend play and stir the imagination, along with a dose of healthy competition.
