Traditions

[TheRedSquare]

What traditions did you have as a child or what you do with your own children??

We have a horrible tradition of shaving the baby's head. Didnt do it with my son, now that im.expecting again..being told i should really do it this time though. Urgh :(

Not sure if thats what you meant lol .. but yeah thats one tradition for new borns

Not sure if this is what you meant but...

Collecting a Christmas tree ornament from every holiday and out then all on the Christmas tree each year.

For my son, I'm going to write him a letter on his birthday every year and give it him when he's older.

My friend has a daughter and she's got a charm bracelet for her and gets her a new charm eveey birthday to represent that year of her life.

@navteexo why shaving the baby's head?

We have little traditions like Friday night movie night/ pancakes on a Saturday/ Sunday roast on a Sunday / balloons in bedroom on birthdays

Every year on Christmas Eve since our DCs were born, we’ve done a salt dough footprint and hung them all up on the wall in the hallway - kind of like having a height chart drawn on the wall but looks prettier

Oh I'm loving these 😊 some lovely ideas...I'm very sentimental, so love ideas of collecting things to give.

I have a journal that is engraved 'letters to our son' that I write in to him, and will give him when he is 18 😊

I like the idea of a Friday night being like a treat night too...something for us to look forward to...
