This December Bucket list is easy, fun, and safe for every age. Check out these must do December activities for the whole family!

December is my favorite month of the year because of all the holiday spirit and joy! This December will be particularly special as we have Arbor here with us. Our December Bucket List changes every year as our family changes (and grows) – so it’s fun to rewrite it at the start of the month with new ideas.
Enjoy my family’s December bucket list to share with your family and friends.
With this December bucket list, you can make family memories that will last a lifetime. Or perhaps our December Activity Wish List will help you start some new December traditions!

Pass Out Holiday Cheer Awards
Last year my family had a wonderful time passing out hand written notes to our favorite decorated homes in town. The best part was when someone posted the note in our town’s online forum – thanking Annabelle for make their day merry and bright!
Print this Holiday Cheer Award below or use it as inspiration for your own homemade cards!

Great family ideas! Especially liked the letters of gratitude, letters to families with lights, and the pancakes! Enjoy the Holidays.
