As we begin this winter break, we enter a two week break. A two week break that is different for everyone. Whether it’s being spent celebrating holidays, spending time out with family members, buying and prepping up for Christmas, a vacation, or meeting up with friends, or to be just doing your own thing, whatever it is. 

Winter activities don’t always have to include the winter, they can just be things that you haven’t thought about doing just yet. Some things are just the most fun with friends, such as going to the bowling alley, mall, ice skating, mini golf, movie theatres or maybe just a local ice cream shop. Some things are more fun to do to bond more with family, such as baking cookies, cakes, or playing board games. 

Some ideas can simply just be to have Holiday Movie Marathons. Whether they’re romantic and sappy or super sad. Or to just catch up on your favorite series. Another idea is to make art. Art is very broad, whether it’s scrapbooking or pottery or if it’s knitting, it’s a very big category. They can write poetry, or write stories. 

Other ideas for things to do can just be internal wants. Maybe to go get a book you’ve been wanting from the bookstore or library. You can also do things you might’ve been putting off because of time you used to not have. 

You might end up acquiring a new hobby. Whether it ranges from just writing journal entries whenever you feel like it to learning how to croquet. Sometimes, the new thing doesn’t have to be in front of you, it can be you. Whether it’s to internally better yourself, or if it’s to get a new hairdo over the holidays, whatever it is, I’m sure you’ll find something on this list that you will want to do during the break.
