The holidays are about spending time
with the ones you love and for many that means the opportunity to spend quality
time with kids and grandkids. Here are some great activities to enjoy with the
little ones at home and in the community.
In
the Kitchen
Kids love baking – and eating — tasty
treats, especially during the holidays. Choose a recipe like shortbread cookies
so younger children can help out by decorating with sprinkles or dusting with
powdered sugar. Try this simple
recipe, it requires only four ingredients!
Making your own gingerbread house is another
kid-friendly holiday activity. Kits and decorations are available at the Barrie
Bulk Barn, as well as local grocery stores. For the designs, check out Martha
Stewart’s post here
for inspiration.
Outside
When the snow arrives, make our own
personal playground. From building snow creatures to tobogganing to ice skating,
these are some of our favourite winter activities. Finish your outing off with
a cup of hot chocolate.
In
Town
If you’re in Barrie, these are some of
our favourite places to cozy up with friends of family. Visit Simply Tea and Chocolate
on Dunlop Street. Specializing in premium teas and handcrafted chocolates, this
shop/cafe also serves lunch. The Barrie
Public Library is another favourite hangout, offering books for all ages.
Read them there or take them home to enjoy.
At Harmony
Village we love the holidays and sharing our favourite things to do and food to
eat. Keep checking back with us as we continue to spread holiday cheer all
month long.
