How to Have a Stress-Free Holiday

How to Have a Stress-Free Holiday

Everyone loves the holiday season, but most of us would agree it can be stressful! Check out these tips to help you have a stress-free holiday and to truly enjoy time with our preschoolers and other loved ones.

Trim the To-Do List

Get rid of things on your to-do list that don’t have to be done and don’t bring you joy!

Reduce Your Gift List

Do whatever you can to reduce the gift list! See if there is anyone you can just spend time with instead of giving gifts, like a group of girlfriends. For big family gatherings, suggest everyone draw a name and only be responsible for giving one, bigger gift to that person.

Buy Instead of Bake

Some Christmas staples might have to be homemade but look to outsource some other dishes and desserts to the grocery store or a local bakery.

Cut Down on Décor

Don’t worry about turning your home into a holiday wonderland. Put up the decorations that are meaningful or a family tradition, such as your Christmas tree and advent calendar. Leave the other decorations in their bins to cut down on setup and teardown time.

Use Paper or Dishwasher-Safe

Instead of using fine china that can’t be put in the dishwasher, opt for disposable or dishwasher-safe dishware! You’ll save time after parties or Christmas dinner by cutting down on clean up, leaving more time for things you love.

Consider Staying Home

Instead of traveling for the holidays this year, considering staying home or even having a staycation. By cutting down on travel, you’ll save money and time you would have spent packing. Having a little extra time to relax at home with your children wouldn’t hurt either!

The holiday season can be busy, but by using these tips, making a conscious effort, and cutting out things you don’t care about, you can cut down on the stress of the season. This will help you have a more enjoyable holiday and focus on what really matters!
