Top Ten Things to Put You in The Holiday Season Spirit!

December is officially here and we cannot be more excited about it! Christmas is just around the corner and while Santa is going over his list, checking it twice, we suggest you go over this list to help put you in the holiday season spirit!

  1. Create the perfect holiday playlist. Having themed music will put you into the proper mood for the season! Make your very own playlist filled with your favorite songs and artists, or use pre-assembled ones from from favorite music streaming service.
  2. Begin decorating. Hang the stockings with care, place the ornaments on the tree, and begin to put up so many lights, indoors and outdoors, that your home will sparkle brighter than the night sky filled with stars! Go crazy and make a Holiday decorating statement.
  3. Cookies for all! Santa should not be the only lucky person to indulge in the cookie-mania! Bake a bunch of holiday cookies and share them with you friends, family, and co-workers. It is also a perfect excuse to throw a gingerbread cookie party.
  4. Holiday drinks. Load up on the peppermint, hot chocolate, gingerbread, and eggnog beverages!
  5. Holiday Movie Marathons. There is nothing cozier than wearing a big sweater, wrapping yourself up with a blanket, and sitting on your couch with homemade cookies and hot chocolate while watching every time slot of Elf playing on TV! There are stations that have already begun showing their holiday cheer by playing nothing but holiday movies! Only seems appropriate that we watch them.
  6. Shopping galore! The stores will be madness but just think of the awesome sales going on. It is an amazing feeling finding the perfect gifts for your loved ones too.
  7. Ugly Christmas Sweater. While you are shopping, expand your search to find the most hideous Christmas sweater being sold. Or create your own if you are more into the DIY projects. It is the perfect excuse to throw a party with your friends.
  8. Wait for the perfect snowfall. Because what would be more perfect this month than a winter wonderland of snow? Where is Elsa when your need her? We want to build a snowman!
  9. Christmas Parties. Get ready for all the holiday cheers! From cookie parties, to ugly christmas sweater parties, to office parties; attend them all in your best holiday get-up!
  10.  Freak out over neighborhood light displays. Make your friends pull over and enjoy the light shows your fellow Staten Islander’s have carefully put up for your enjoyment. That is what they are meant for, right?
