Traditions will help sustain your family during rough times and will help make your holidays even more memorable. To help you find some Christmas gifts that you and your kids can work on together and establish a family Christmas tradition, here are some ideas for you.

Christmas Gift Baskets

Although Christmas gift baskets are quite traditional, you can always turn this traditional Christmas present into a unique Christmas gift. Forget about those traditional food baskets. A lot of people get food baskets for Christmas these days. Instead of putting food in your Christmas basket, ask you kids to put some handmade trinkets that they made into the basket. Handmade trinkets like Christmas ornaments should do the trick. Just make sure that you add some other things into the basket like CDs, small collectible items and the likes to make the contents of the basket more interesting.

Christmas Cookies

If you love to bake, you can ask your kids to help you bake some Christmas cookies. Yes, there is a big possibility that your small kids will only cause mess in the kitchen instead of really helping you out but since you are trying to establish a Christmas tradition here, you just have to put up with the mess. Don't worry, next Christmas, you kids will already grow up a little bit so they will not really make so much mess in your Christmas kitchen.

While you are baking cookies, keep your kids busy by ask your kids to prepare some nicely decorated jars where you can put the cookies. To avoid some accidents, buy plastic jars for this purpose instead of glass. Plastic jars are lighter and do not break into pieces if your kids accidentally drop them on the kitchen floor. You should also buy enough decorative brightly colored papers and ribbons to decorate the jars and make some one of a kind Christmas gifts.
