I help !! :) ok , so first you should set up your tree really early ! we set ours up in the first weekend of november !! also , just really get into the spirit ! sing christmas songs lots , play christmas CDs if you have any ... and put lots of decorations up everywhere !! make paper snowflakes and hang them everywhere ! like the song says ; it's the most wonderful time of the year !! I hope you have an awesome Christmas with your family !!! :) :) What my mum and dad do about a week before christmas they write a christmas letter from 'santa' to me and my little sister (she's five) and I'm nearly 14 haha;) I just love watching my sisters face when she gets a letter addressed to her... My mum always gets some 'magic reindeerfood' its just glitter! And she says that you need to put it in the grass and on the pavement outside,sprinkle it then santa knows where to land,haha;) the children under 8 will love it;) Also it snows alot where I'm from (england) so about 8pm we all go outside and have a snowball fight or make a snowman then we come in,drink caramel hot chocolate with mini marshmellows and we all watch a christmas film and bring our quilts downstairs,after the films done were allowed to open one present (this is on christmas eve) and its always new pjs then we put them on
