Holiday Activities for Your Family

Now that your children are out of school for winter break, you may want plan some family fun time before classes begin again next month. Here at Dr. Roberts Family Dentistry, we have some holiday traditions that we enjoy every year:

• Share the wonder: Read favorite stories from your own childhood to your children
• Feel the warmth: Drink some hot cocoa! Letting kids pick out their own toppings for cocoa is a fun family tradition, and as long as kids know that this sugary treat is something they only get on special occasions, their teeth won’t be at risk.
• Enjoy holiday magic: Drive around to look at Christmas lights. Kids love seeing houses all decorated for the holidays, and even if you don’t want to make a trip to Callaway Gardens or Lake Lanier Islands’ displays, you can still find some amazing displays in the neighborhoods near your home!
• Make some yum! Bake and decorate some sugar cookies. Most recipes make a lot of cookies, so you can enjoy a few for yourself and give the rest away as gifts to friends and family.
