Ideas for the Perfect Christmas Party

- 18 December 2015

Christmas is a great season to gather friends, family, co-workers and even the neighbors together for holiday fun and festivities. Traditional holiday parties have been a favorite for years; however, they have come a long way since I was a child.

However, strangely enough, I don’t actually own one of these orbs-of-entertainment… until now. And the best part is I made it myself and so can you!

- 14 December 2015

When I was growing up, my school took a half hour each morning, a couple of weeks before Christmas, to have us all gather in the gymnasium to sing Christmas songs. It was a great way to get into the spirit of the holidays (not that I needed it) and also a great way to stop the teaching time.
