- Snowport: Located in Boston’s beautiful Seaport, the holiday market has not only cute vendors, but fun games and an abundance of snacks and drinks to try out.
- Take in a holiday play, like How the Grinch Stole Christmas or take in a children’s matinee of the Holiday Pops.

- The Grand Menorah Lighting: Located in Seaport, this event on Dec. 29th will include not only the lighting of the giant menorah, but activities and treats as well.
- Driving and walking around for holiday light displays. The time-honored tradition of finding beautifully decorated homes is still a fun option. Beacon Hill is always a great place to start!
No matter what you do, creating fun memories for yourself and your children to look back on over the years is one of the best gifts you can give one another. The holidays can be full of stress and taking a moment, or a few hours, to simply enjoy being with family and friends is a wonderful way to destress and find the cheer.
Happy Holidays from Nightingale Night Nurses.
