The Holidays is all about making memories with loved ones whether they are friends and family. This can be done in many ways with fun activities, photos, and special gifts. Gifts and other items can be commemorative. That is they become physical records of a special moment that occurred at Christmas. This holiday one of the trends will be to give something lasting that will go beyond this season's hottest toy or video game. There are many options for Christmas mementos but here are some great options that will help you get started choosing one for your family member or child.
First are personalized ornaments. The story of a family's life can be told by the decorations on its family Christmas tree. In a time when most things can be easily replaced or tossed away, the tradition of keeping certain ornaments to be used year after year still remains strong. They can something simple as a child's favorite ornament, the first decoration bought for that family Christmas tree, or the angel or star that is set at the top each year. The point is that they each have an important holiday family memory that they are tied to. So if you are thinking about adding to your collection of special decorations this year, a personalized tree ornament is a great idea. You can order and have the ornament have an inscription with the name of each of your family members and possible a photo. They can come in many shapes and sizes such as a regular ball ornament or a small picture frame.
Another great gift to preserve memories is a photo keychain. This is a great idea for kids who are older and getting key to open the house door. These keychain have a clear frame that can be used to hold a special picture from the dozens that were probably taken during Christmas. It is a great way to remind your children of the wonderful times you spent together.
Another special item is Santa's magic key this is a new item that is great for families that do not have a chimney and have younger children who wonder how Santa can deliver presents to your home. You can give them this special key and say that it is a magic item that helps Santa get in to deliver gifts and that it is important for the children of the house to keep it safe so he can come. This can be on memento that can start a special holiday tradition.
A simple and affordable gift idea is customized mugs with pictures of different family members. This is a great idea for a gift made just for each child. Try to find mugs that have a holiday decal. They can become special name gifts that your children will treasure as long as they can. A good idea if you have younger children is to see if you can get a plastic variety.
Another great idea is a box of treasure and keepsakes. You can give these boxes to your children and they can use it to keep special treasures they might find during the year. Try to get something similar to a jewelry box for the girls and a plain or holiday themed box for the boys. These will be great souvenir and keepsakes
