Talking Christmas with My Toddler

Christmas seems to be everywhere. Locally it started at Walgreens and Wal-Mart before Halloween was over. Last week downtown was completely decorated. Snow may be on the way by Thanksgiving, and Thade is pretty sure that it is Christmas now.

We still have a little while before Christmas, and I know he is getting anxious. We sat down last week to talk about the upcoming holidays.  I asked him “what do you like about Christmas?” Thade quickly replied “snow, I love to walk on it, and listen to it crunch.” I thought how sweet, and then he said “and we are going to get a Playstation 3”. Snow maybe, Playstation 3 I don’t think so.

What are some of your favorite things about Christmas? Do you have any family traditions for the Holidays?
