Hive-Worthy Holiday Traditions to Start This Year 🐝✨
The holiday season is all about creating magical memories with your hive. Why not start a few new traditions this year that will have your family buzzing with joy? These ideas are simple, meaningful, and guaranteed to bring everyone together for some holiday cheer.
1. Create a “Bee-utiful Ornament” Tradition 🎄
Each year, make or purchase an ornament that represents a special memory or milestone from the past year. Write the date on it and hang it proudly on the tree. Over time, your collection will become a hive of cherished memories.
MY Family Tradition: Every year, my family visits the “St. Nick” store in Littleton, where the kids get to pick out two ornaments from the beautifully decorated trees. Afterward, we head to The Melting Pot for a festive dinner. We’ve been doing this for over 20 years, and it’s a tradition we treasure!
2. Host a “Cozy Holiday Pajama Party” 🪑☀️
Pick a night during the holiday season to stay in your comfiest pajamas, sip hot cocoa, and watch a favorite holiday movie as a family. Make it extra special with a “Build-Your-Own Hot Chocolate Bar” featuring marshmallows, whipped cream, and festive sprinkles.
3. Adopt a “Honeycomb of Kindness” Jar ❤️✨
Encourage your family to spread kindness by writing down good deeds or things they’re grateful for on slips of paper and adding them to a jar. On New Year’s Eve, read them together and reflect on the sweet moments of the season.
4. Bake “Buzz-Worthy Treats” for Neighbors 🍪🐝
Gather the family to bake cookies, brownies, or other goodies and deliver them to neighbors, friends, or local first responders. Attach a sweet note to let them know you’re thinking of them this holiday season.
5. Go on a “Holiday Light Safari” 🌟🌆
Pile into the car with cozy blankets and a thermos of hot cider, then drive around to find the most dazzling holiday light displays in your area. Make it a game by voting on your favorite house or counting how many reindeer you spot.
6. Plan a “Bee-yond the Gifts” Night 🎡
Take a break from the holiday shopping frenzy to focus on giving back. Volunteer as a family at a local food bank, adopt a family in need, or donate toys to a holiday drive. Teach your little bees the true meaning of the season.
7. Craft “Holiday Buzz Boards” 🎨
Set aside an evening for crafting personalized holiday decor. Make wreaths, garlands, or “Buzz Boards” with inspirational messages and hang them around the house. It’s a fun way to get creative and add some homemade charm to your home.
8. Start a “Memory Jar” 🎶✨
Throughout the holiday season, jot down funny moments, sweet memories, or favorite activities on slips of paper. Keep them in a jar, and at the end of the season, gather as a family to read them and relive the joy of the holidays.
9. Have a “Bee-stagram Photo Challenge” 📸🐝
Encourage your family to snap photos of holiday moments throughout the season — decorating the tree, baking cookies, or playing in the snow. At the end of the season, create a digital or printed photo album to look back on each year.
10. Host a “Buzz-Worthy Game Night” 🎫🎁
Pick a night for family game time, featuring festive games like holiday trivia, charades, or a “Pin the Nose on Rudolph” activity. Don’t forget the prizes — maybe some honey sticks or small toys for the kids.

Starting new traditions is a beautiful way to bond with your hive and make the holidays even more special. Whether you’re crafting ornaments, spreading kindness, or enjoying a cozy pajama night, these ideas are sure to create sweet memories that will last for years to come.
