Now is the time to start planning that Hanukkah, St. Nicholas, Winter Solstice, Christmas Eve, Christmas, Boxing Day or/and New Years Day party(ies). Ask your family and friends what kind of party they want. They might surprise you and suggest something low key and casual but fun. And remember what you want is also important. Start writing down all the ideas now.
Find out if any of your close friends and other family members are having their parties. Coordinate with them. There are lots of holidays up for grabs and there’s all that time in-between. Once you’ve done that set a date and shortly after start telling your friends.
