It is June and I am already getting worried about Christmas. My lovely daughter will be 12 and of course no longer believes in FC (sob.) For various reasons our family is smaller this year and so I am concerned our Christmas will be a boring wash-out for her. I am Christmas crazy, I love it but I am hoping for ideas to make new more grown up traditions. Up until now our festive periods have been extravagant blow-outs, over the top decorations, masses of gifts and food, reindeer food, sparkly reindeer foot prints on the carpet, unexpected bells jingling in the run up, you name it... now it feels like everything is going to fall flat. There are no same age cousins we can invite over and obviously her friends will be busy, plus I think our budget is likely to be smaller this year. Any ideas? TIA
