Are you ready for some holiday cheer in the middle of summer?
Christmas in July is the perfect opportunity to bring some festive fun to your summer activities at camp. From decorating Christmas trees to singing carols, there are plenty of ways to celebrate this traditional holiday uniquely and excitingly.
One of the most beloved traditions of Christmas is the classic Christmas tree.
Who says you can only decorate one in December? Bring some holiday spirit to your campsite by setting up a Christmas tree this July. You can use traditional ornaments or a more summery theme with seashells, surfboards, and sunflowers. Get creative and make it your own!
Another fun activity for Christmas in July is crafting holiday decorations. Gather some supplies and make your ornaments, garlands, and wreaths. You can even create a Christmas-themed craft station for your fellow campers to enjoy. This is a great way to get everyone involved in the festivities and add personalized touches to your campsite.
Of course, no Christmas celebration is complete without the classic carols. Gather around the campfire and sing your favorite holiday tunes. You can even teach each other new ones and make it a camp-wide sing-along. It’s a great way to bring everyone together and spread holiday cheer.
But Christmas in July isn’t just about the traditional holiday activities. It’s also a time to enjoy the summer weather and try new camp activities. Enjoy the warm weather and go swimming, kayaking, or hiking. You can even have a Christmas-themed scavenger hunt or obstacle course.
You can try some Christmas-themed summer sports if you’re feeling particularly adventurous. Have you ever played beach volleyball with a Santa hat on? How about a game of frisbee with a wreath? Get creative and see what new games you can come up with.
And don’t forget about the food! Christmas in July is the perfect time to enjoy holiday treats with a summer twist. Have a Christmas cookie decorating contest, or make some red and green smoothies. You can even have a campfire cookout with hot cocoa and s’mores.
In conclusion, Christmas in July is a unique and exciting way to add festive fun to your summer activities at camp. From decorating Christmas trees to singing carols, there are plenty of ways to celebrate this traditional holiday in a new and creative way.
