Sooner or later, on the eve of the New Year holiday, many parents have a question, how to arrange the magic for the New Year with their own hands. Of course, such things as a Christmas tree, sweet tangerines, sparklers and a festive table create an atmosphere of an unprecedented holiday and high spirits. However, for many people, the most important thing is not the holiday itself, but its anticipation, all the necessary preparations, when the fathers and their children make a New Year's wolf costume with their own hands, decorate the Christmas tree, and prepare holiday treats.
However, starting preparations for the New Year, invite your children to help you with this. Let everything you do on your own for the New Year be the result of joint efforts and efforts. Plan in advance everything that needs to be done so that at the last moment it does not turn out that you forget about the outfit for the holiday, and that you do not have to make a New Year's suit in haste. And involving your children in all this, you not only set a good example for them, but also become closer to them. Moreover, your children will help you diversify everything around, because their imagination can only be envied.
Start by decorating the Christmas tree. It seemed that in order to make the tree look magical, you don’t need any frills or tricks, because you can always use bright garlands and large multi-colored balls that will make the “forest queen” shine in a new way. But this is far from the case. Indeed, if you come up with something unusual, for example, make Christmas tree decorations yourself, even if some of them are incomprehensible and funny, then you can confidently say that there is simply no better place than your Christmas tree in the whole world.
Of course, you can go a completely different way and come up with a certain style in which the Christmas tree will be decorated. So, you can give preference to aliens and decorate the tree with green men, flying saucers, or some cartoon character and arrange everything in his style. Act as your fantasy tells you. Do not be afraid to experiment. It is also necessary to take into account the complexity of the upcoming work, so that your baby can easily cope with the task and is not disappointed with his results.
In addition to New Year decorations with your own hands, you can also come up with costumes for your entire family. And while mom prepares something tasty in the kitchen, the father, along with the children, can begin to plan New Year's fun. So, let each of your kids express their preferences for costumes. And you already choose the most acceptable and uncomplicated option. That is why invite the children to make a short list so that they themselves have plenty to choose from. And it’s okay if the proposed options are repeated, because there is always a way out of this situation. The costume can be played by arranging a small contest or quiz. Try to get your children involved in preparations for the New Year as much as possible, thereby making them feel not only part of the team, but already old enough to take part in discussions of this kind.
So, first of all, making a costume needs to start with finding the right material. You can use an old gray coat, from which you can easily make a cloak. And if this is not possible, then just buy a plain fabric of the right color. Then in any store you buy a mask of a wolf, or you can paint your child’s face in the appropriate direction. But you can also make the mask yourself. To do this, take a cardboard sheet and cut out the muzzle of a wolf from it. Then decorate it in gray, cut out its eyes and think about how to dress it. For more convincing rehearse how your baby will growl. Everything is ready!
And the last thing that should be paid no less attention is the decoration of a children's room. Do not limit your child’s imagination, let everyone take care of this matter, and you can only tell them a little somewhere or hint. And you will notice how fun and at ease your children will cope with this difficult task.
Thus, it is not so difficult to create a miracle for the New Year with your own hands, when the whole family works together. After all, each member of the family can not only offer an interesting idea, but also tell the other in a matter in which he understands much better than everyone else. The most important thing is the desire to help and work in a team. After all, miracles do not happen by themselves, miracles are the fruits of zeal and a strenuous effort.
