I love Christmas more than any other celebration throughout the year and from September 1st I am usually counting down the days. We've always spent a week celebrating it with lots of different activities and traditions and its a very big deal in our house.
Last year however it was such a damp squib compared with other years. The problem is that now the children are grown up almost (19 and 16) a lot of our traditions have been outgrown and Christmas has lost some of its magic. They spent a lot of time in their rooms and some of the traditions just don't work anymore.
What do people with adult and older teens only do to keep Christmas special? I think this Christmas needs to rely less on old traditions and maybe introduce some new ideas to replace them.
Please help me breathe new life into our Christmas.
