Christmas is coming, and the holiday season is in front of our eyes. This will be a really long holiday period as we get close to the end of this year. How did you experience this year? I hope you have many good experiences in this year 
Whether you celebrate Christmas or not, there are some positive activities that we can do to use our time at this holiday season. Sure, going on a vacation with your family or friends is nice. However, there are some other activities that you can do if you decide to stay at home or don’t want to go too far from your city.
Now, let’s see a good list of those positive activities that you can do in this holiday season:
1. Bring in all your families to your home

Well, why don’t you invite your other families to your home and have a little homemade party? Even if you just having lunch together or playing home games, it is nice to raise bond between each other family members. Have a good chatter, laugh, or singing Christmas Carol together to make us your holiday spirit into positive ones.
2. Do some charity works

You don’t need to celebrate holiday events with some festive, glamour, or expensive activities like making a big party. How about take a look to some of our friends that may be a bit unfortunate in term or money and need some help? You can also engage in social activities with friends such as visiting an orphanage.
3. Watching some inspiring good movies at home
Who says you need to go out from your home… or from your bedroom? Grab some popcorn and cola and turn on your TV to watch some holiday movies. You can bring in some friends to watch together some Christmas-themed movies such as A Christmas Carol (1999)

Hi Alexander
I always try to stick with my new year’s resolution but it does not always happen. I cannot remember the last when my whole family was together during Christmas.
I think I will just try again this year and maybe live a healthier lifestyle for 2016. I think exercise and a healthy diet is on my bucket list.
Hi Vijoen, That’s a good thing to stick with your new year’s resolution
I wish your resolution for healthier lifestyle and celebrating Christmas together with your family can be achieved.
Hey Alex,
Another great article, my way of making money or saving my money during holiday season is make my own gift basket. I spend less and more it’s personalized. Hope you have a happy holiday:)
Sure Pinky,
That’s a good idea. Being a personalized item boost your motivation when seeing it
Happy holiday too
These are all great suggestions.
I think that we can take charity a step further, and cook hot meals for a few local people who are down on their luck, as well as to homeless veterans.
Another idea I had was to go through our wardrobes and donate the clothes you don’t need anymore to charity
Thanks for sharing.
Hi Ian,
That’s a good idea to step further into charity. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and may all other people who were helped with your charity works are also blessed.
