You can help them remember these moments by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parents.com\/toddlers-preschoolers\/development\/intellectual\/how-to-make-memories-last-for-your-preschooler\/\">talking about your experience together<\/a>. Many families continue traditions passed down from their extended families, but if you don\u2019t have very many traditions with your family, here are a few new traditions to start:<\/p>\n<h3>Look at Christmas lights<\/h3>\n<p>Load your preschoolers in the car, take along a bag of warm cookies and go look at your neighborhood lights displays. \u00a0Make note of the best houses to return to year after year. Make a night of it and get together with neighbors for a Christmas light <a href=\"https:\/\/dallas.citymomsblog.com\/framily-holiday-tradition-christmas-light-scavenger-hunt\/\">scavenger hunt<\/a>!<\/p>\n<h3>Decorate the Christmas tree<\/h3>\n<p>Whether you put your decorations up early or wait until after Thanksgiving, let your preschooler help with putting out the decorations. \u00a0Turn on your favorite holiday movie while you put the decorations out. Then remember to tell your preschooler about where you picked up a particular ornament or who made your stockings. \u00a0Make sure to pass down these stories to your child. (And don\u2019t worry, just fix the tree after they head to bed!)<\/p>\n<h3>Paint ornaments<\/h3>\n<p>Pick up a craft set of ornaments from your local craft store. \u00a0Set out newspaper to cover your table and paint ornaments with your preschooler. \u00a0Not only will you have a new tradition, but you\u2019ll have precious ornaments and d\u00e9cor to add to your Holiday decorations!<\/p>\n<p>When you are creating new traditions in your family, start small. \u00a0Add one or two traditions to your families\u2019 list of activities. Some activities may fall flat and you won\u2019t want to do them again next year, or you may realize you LOVE one activity and that becomes the one special tradition every year!<\/p>\n<p>Want to learn more about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kidsrkidsnewterritory.com\/\">Kids \u2018R\u2019 Kids Learning Academy of New Territory<\/a> located in Sugar Land, Texas?
