This year, I worked with Kai-Lee Ann Morrill to create this absolutely stunning printable for families with a London at Christmas theme! Since moving here a little over a year ago, we’ve been completely charmed by the gorgeous decorations and festive atmosphere during this time of year, so I thought it would be so fun to bring that to life in the printable. There are so many beautiful details, from iconic landmarks and transport to festive overlays (including the Regent Street angel lights!). I love it so much.
Each day includes a brief prompt to learn about a winter holiday from around the world. There are 13 different holidays represented from various cultures and faith traditions, and the very short prompts are perfect for families to experience the diversity of celebrations during this time of year.
