Mom Tips:
- The weekends are usually busier for people to go look at lights. Some of the top locations you might need to park to the side to wait to have your turn to look. Consider going on a Sunday evening or weeknight.
- Plan either an early or later dinner that night. Perhaps a crockpot meal such as chili will make dinner a bit easier the night you go out.
- Pack a light snack and either bring along homemade hot cocoa or consider stopping at one of the amazing coffee shops in the area for a warm treat! Pack those car blankets too!
- Crank up the Christmas music!
- Create a scavenger hunt from your car as you drive around looking for reindeer, Santa and the Grinch as well as whatever else you can think up of. Your game, you make up the list of what to find!
