Activities To Get You In The Spirit

The Christmas holiday is less than two weeks away. If you’re scrambling for some family-friendly activities to get you in the spirit, we have a few suggestions for you below. Some of these activities you’ll have to drive to so why not do so in a new Honda from D’ELLA Honda of Glens Falls!

1. Find the Lights – Whether you take a trip down to NYC to see the tree in Rockefeller Center or just walk around your neighborhood to see what your friends came up with for their front lawn, it’s not Christmas until you see some lights!
2. Build a Snowman – There’s still the potential for a snowstorm between now and Christmas. Make sure you get outside and build a Frosty of your own to greet any holiday guests if any of the white stuff sticks.
3. Go Caroling – Door to door caroling seems to be a fading activity. Go with a group of friends or family members. Even if the people you sing for don’t celebrate Christmas they’ll probably love the gesture anyway.
4. Go on a Sleigh Ride – We don’t mean sledding here. This is all about going on a real sleigh ride with horses and a man in a top hat! Check this website for places that offer this forgotten experience.
5. Visit the North Pole – Not the actual North Pole, but North Pole, NY. This small town is also home to, you guessed it, Santa’s Workshop, a themed amusement park.
6. Take the Polar Express – Several of the railroads in the state have fun Christmas/Winter-themed train rides throughout the season. The Saratoga & North Creek Railroad has a Polar Express-themed ride that is very popular. Learn more here.
7. Watch a Parade – Almost every town or city in New York has a Christmas parade. It might not be on Christmas but whenever and wherever it takes place it’s sure to put a smile on your face.
8. Go Ice Skating – It might not be quite cold enough yet to go ice skating outside but there are plenty of indoor ice rinks in the area where you can practice your triple axel or salchow.
9. Volunteer – Nothing warms the heart like giving back this season. Volunteer at your church, local food pantry, school, or favorite organization to help community members in need this winter.
