Growing up, our family had lots of fun traditions around the holidays. We made my great aunt's cinnamon rolls to have Christmas morning, decorated cookies together, held a family bookclub holiday party and/or a New Years eve party etc. I have tried to create traditions with our kids that I hope they will remember in the same way. In addition to making cinnamon rolls each year we also have made these scrumptious holiday treats. I started this when LT was 2 because they are super easy to make and a 2 year old felt involved. They consist of melting hershey kisses on pretzels and then putting an m and m on top to squish down the chocolate. Our kids could do something much more complicated baking wise at this point, however, LT reminds me each year that we "always make the pretzel treats." So, the tradition continues.
I just read about a super cute tradition in Iceland where each member in a family gives each other a book Christmas eve and then spends the night reading together. I love this and hope to start it in our family!
