Kids love Christmas,  Kids love Christmas Toys and kids love making Christmas Lists.  This Christmas, why not turn your Childs Christmas List into a writing activity.  Whenever possible  parents like to turn activities done at home into learning experiences.  One great way to get your kids writing and expressing themselves is to have them write out a detailed Christmas List.  Rather than list all the Christmas Toys they want, ask them to not only create a list of Christmas Toys but add a paragraph explaining the toy or gift and why they want the toy for Christmas. 

 

Another approach to getting kids writing Christmas Lists would be to ask them to write a letter to you or even a letter to Santa.  In the Christmas list letter your child can explain what Christmas Toys they want and why and explain why they deserve Christmas Toys this year.  These ideas are just to get things started, you may come up with your own Christmas List ideas depending on the age of your child.
