Ten nice things to do on Christmas day

So often we focus on what we expect other people to do for us rather than taking a look at how we can make Christmas more enjoyable for other people.
Phone a family member who is far away and whom you haven’t seen for a while.


AdvertisementInvite someone round who will definitely be spending the day alone.
Offer to help clear up the kitchen after Christmas lunch.
Help to put finishing touches to the Christmas decorations.
Offer to wrap presents.
Get into the hot red suit and play Father Christmas.
Don’t pretend you are too cool to sing Christmas carols.
Entertain your impossible nephew to give the other guests a bit of a breather.
Praise the food, regardless of what it tastes like.
Say thank you nicely for all the gifts you received.
