Hey all. I thought to start a thread to help others not to "learn the hard way" Some of the pitfalls and some of the dangerous stuff that we all have learned on the holidays.
<U>THIS IS NOT A RELIGION, SANTA, DEBATE THREAD.</U>
Even people who do not celebrate the holidays are going to have some exposure to them. Just advice from parents for parents. A list of sorts, for new parents, from parents who's kids are getting into different age groups ect.
Please be aware that <U>some of the advice may either be used, or linked to in the Parenting Forums Front Page.</U>
Have fun like any other thread. And while debates are both normal and accepted. Just please start a new thread in its proper place to have one.
General holiday advice can use this thread.
I would touch base with Grandparents uncles ect. On the type's of gifts you want to avoid for your kids. No one wants to give/get a gift only to have it taken right away.
If entertaining make sure the other parents can share the rules of your house with their kids in advance. I.E. No going into bedrooms/basement. Or leave the cat alone its mean. ect
