4 Fun Things To Do On Christmas Day

Fa-la-la-la-‘let’ the final build-up to Christmas Day begin because one of the most festive occasions of the year is right around the corner! By now your tree is probably up and glowing with delight, the gifts are almost wrapped and ready, and you’re waiting in anticipation for friends and loved ones to arrive. But something is missing – the entertainment! No need to ‘Claus’ a scene because ‘yule’ be relieved to know that we’ve planned ahead so you don’t have to. Here are 4 fun things to do on Christmas Day to guarantee a ‘cracker’ of a time.

1. Organise A Festive Photoshoot

A photoshoot is a fun way to cherish special holiday memories for young and old! And the best part, it can be done anywhere, whether that be at home or your yearly holiday location. Ask your loved ones and friends to arrive wearing festive colours, like white, green, red, and gold. Or you can even order matching personalised T-shirts for everyone! Throw in a few Christmas hats and a festive headband or two and you’re good to go. The pictures can be treasured in a photobook or you can use them for your annual family Christmas card.

2. Watch Christmas Movies

If the weather isn’t looking too shabby, keep your guests entertained with a Christmas movie marathon. Classic festive movies, like Home Alone or How The Grinch Stole Christmas always go down a treat. Talking about treats, no movie marathon is complete without a snack table! Fill the table with goodies like proudly local biltong, dried fruit and nuts, chips, and delicious cupcakes and cookies for dessert. Be sure to serve some fine alcohol for the adults as well, because who doesn’t like a dash of ‘gin’-gle or ‘Bells’ to get them in a holly jolly mood!

3. Play Secret Santa

Another fun Christmas activity that everyone loves is Secret Santa. If you’re not familiar with this festive game, then today is your day to learn! Each of your guests will draw a name well in advance before Christmas day. They will be the Secret Santa for whoever’s name they picked and must arrive with a prezzie for that person. The present can be chosen from their giftee’s wish list or it can be completely random. To make the game more entertaining you can set rules, like only buying gifts under R199 or R50. On the day everyone opens their gifts and has to guess who their Secret Santa is. The game is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser!

4. Let The Kiddos Put On A Show

Our final Christmas activity idea is to let all the children in your family or friendship group put on a show or play. Besides being a great way to keep them busy throughout the day, it will also bring lots of joy and entertainment to their audience. The kiddos can sing festive carols and songs, act out a story, or even perform a popular Tik Tok dance. And who knows, there might even be an adult or two that decides to join in on the performance!

And that’s a wrap on our 4 fun things to do on Christmas Day. No matter how you choose to entertain your loved ones, we can guarantee that everyone will have a ‘tree’-mendous time. After all, the most important thing is to spend Christmas Day who those you love.
