Do you have holiday traditions? At Providence RV Park near Lake Fork we have an unusual but great fun one I’d like to share with you. I can’t remember when we started it or why, but now we can’t stop…the kids won’t let us. We do a scavenger hunt, but not for the gift; just for the number written on the gift. All the gifts are on display, but instead of a name, it has a number on it. We have assigned each child a number but they have to hunt for it to discover which gift is theirs. My husband writes 3-4 clues, in rhyme for each child. They all start at a central place and eventually will be spread out everywhere looking for their next clue. And for some reason they think it’s a race so it gets funny as they stumble over each other. It’s a bit of work for my husband, but we all have so much fun that it’s worth it. One of our 13-year-old granddaughters told us that it was the best part of Christmas; so you see we can’t stop. For those too young to read, they have to do assigned tricks like jump 3 times and turn around before they get their number.
Some of our traditions have gone by the wayside as they weren’t too important to us or life just changes (someone blinks and there it goes again). But this one has stuck around. Do you have any special or fun traditions that are worth sharing?
Our family Christmas at Providence RV Park gets better every year. Do you have old, or new, family traditions?
