momstown Mississauga Moms Share Top 3 Holiday Traditions

momstown Mississauga moms have been talking a lot this month on our message board about spending the holidays with their extended families, babies and kids! momstown Mississauga's chat forum is full of hot topics including favourite movies and holiday traditions.
Here are the Top 3 Holiday Traditions we've been talking about.



1. Christmas Pajamas:

  • every christmas eve we recieved christmas/winter pjs im continuing this with my family :)

  • I'm doing the Christmas Eve PJs too! My son's still wearing his from last year but its funny to see how much he's grown- the arms are so short!

  • We do the Christmas eve PJs as well. Christmas eve we go to church, come back and sprinkle reindeer food, put out carrots, cookies and milk, and open the PJs.

2. The Gift Game:

  • 'Every Christmas we play the "Gift Game" everyone buys one gift. After dinner, we pile all the gifts in the centre of the room, then we pick numbers out of a hat for who goes first, after the first person goes the next person can steal the gift that was just opened or pick a new gift until all gift are open which can take a bit of time some year a especially when there's a gift everyone want. always a lot of laughing going'

  • i used to do the "gift game" too - always good times lol



3. The Elf on the Shelf:

  • We do the elf on the shelf, exchange pjs and take a family pic in the foyer each year. That's about it for traditions we've started.
  • totally forgot about the elf on the shelf..... we have him too. He should be arriving any day now. Might as well stretch this out as long as possible - lol!
  • I've heard from friends it ends up being a lot of work, since you have to remember to reposition him each night.. and he often gets into mischief of his own...
