New Year is the most family holiday, so it's best to meet him in a circle of close and dear people. And that evening and night were fun and fabulous, you need to worry in advance about the organization of the celebration.
Family traditions for the New Year
To once again confirm the strength of family ties, together to do pleasant preparatory trifles, which so bring together and give so much joy, you need to start your own family New Year traditions.
For example, in our Soviet childhood a week before the New Year, my father always took a Christmas tree out of the closet, mom was a toy, and we all dressed her up. And on New Year's Eve they put each of their boots under it and waited for the next morning to give gifts from Grandfather Frost. Simply wonderful traditions!
But it's time to come up with your own. You can also install and decorate the Christmas tree one week before the New Year. And every year to do a Christmas tree family photo, so that in 20 years there was a theme for memories and nostalgia "what we were ...", "how our children grew up ...".
You can arrange a yearly voyage for relatives and friends each year. Fortunately, the New Year holidays allow you to celebrate the holiday until the Old New Year.
Small pleasant traditions like buying each year one new Christmas tree decoration or an independent production of it, are able to rally your family and make you feel the unity of this common action.
Family games for the New Year
Directly the family New Year itself can and should be fun, so that all year round family dinners had something to remember. Think in advance the menu, contests, games. You can make a themed holiday, of course, taking into account all age groups.
Contests and games are the main thing in the scenario of the New Year's family. You can start a little beforehand - at about 21 o'clock, that by the time of the battle of the chimes everyone was already in an enthusiastic mood.
Games can be the most primitive, so that even smaller members of the family will have fun. For example, a game in "Frosty Breath", when participants are invited to blow off as many snowflakes from the table as possible for a given time. And for adults, competitions are more difficult - for a better dancer and singer, for inventing a New Year's story, a better rhyme for the given lines.
In general, the New Year in the family circle a priori can not be boring, because next to you - such dear and loved people! Cherish these moments, say compliments to each other, give gifts - this too should become a good tradition and a warm memory.
