While the Holidays may look a little different this year due to COVID-19, Christmas and its true meaning is always worth celebrating.
Here are some ways you can celebrate with your family that's fun and safe for everyone!
Drive-in light displays
Most big cities have displays that showcase the beautiful Christmas decorations that you can take your car through. Some require tickets or a reservation but it is often fairly affordable. This way, you can experience the magic of Christmas in a safe way. A free way to experience the lights is to simply drive through neighborhoods with some hot cocoa and cookies!
Christmas parades

People watch from their porches or out their windows. Sometimes the parades will have fun holiday characters sitting on the back of the cars. Watch for these events in your neighborhood newsletter.
Bring fun outings back home!
