3 Reasons to Take a Family Vacation After Christmas
The holiday season is a busy time of year. Decorating, work parties, shopping, school plays, family visits, cooking… it can all leave you feeling stressed and wore out.
We don’t want that for you.
Plan ahead for a quick and quiet getaway right after Christmas to slow things down. Not many people think of this option but you can be the one to plan an intentional time of peace and rest for your family after the busy holiday season.
Consider these 3 reasons to take a family vacation after Christmas:
1. Refocus After the Hustle and Bustle
The months leading up to Christmas (especially December) are typically filled with jam-packed schedules and end-of-the-year pressures. Taking a family vacation after the bustling holiday season is a great way to refocus your family before the new year begins. Getting away, even for just a few nights, as a family can reset your family tempo. You can also give your family space to dream, create, and plan new goals together for the upcoming new year. Doesn’t that make you smile just thinking about it?!
2. Kids Are Still on School Break
Between school, sports, and work, family vacations are hard to schedule during the rest of the year. Take advantage of the week between Christmas and New Year! Life seems to slow down during this week. Your kids will likely still be on break and you might even have a few vacation days left to burn before the end of the year. It’s a perfect time to plan one last hurrah together.
3. Create a New Family Tradition
Many parents love the idea of giving their kids unforgettable experiences. Why not give your kids the unexpected gift of a family vacation to open on Christmas morning. Better yet, make it an annual recurrence the whole family can look forward throughout the year.
Go ahead, embrace and enjoy the craziness of the holidays while looking forward to ending your year on a restful and positive note together as a family.
