What Can I Do With My Kids During Christmas Break?

We know how crazy Christmas break can be for anyone. If you have children, then you have even more on your plate to worry about. We know how quickly kids get stir-crazy when they are in the house for too long! The Shops @Rockvale want you to stay as sane as possible while your children are home from school on Christmas break. Read on for some great ideas that will keep them happy and content the whole time!

Invest in a Disney + Subscription

If you haven’t already, now is the time to invest in Disney +, the latest family-friendly subscription service. Instead of hauling your children to an overcrowded, pricey movie theater, pay just $6.99 for a one-month subscription and have a plethora of movies and shows at your fingertips. You’ll also get a free trial for one week, so there is no reason not to try it out! Your kids will love the amazing movies from Disney, Marvel, Pixar, National Geographic, and Lucasfilm. Pop some popcorn, heat up the hot cocoa, and enjoy movie after movie with your kids in the comfort of your own home.

Sledding in Lancaster, PA

We know how crazy kids can get when they are cooped up inside on cold, snowy days. Let them burn off some energy by heading to local sledding areas in Lancaster. We recommend trying out Lancaster’s very own Buchanan Park, located at 901 Buchanan Avenue. Hundreds of residents enjoy the beautiful state park during the snowy winter months because of the perfect hills that are great for sleds and snow tubes. If you need somewhere else to go to keep your kids busy, Buchanan Park is also close to the North Museum of Natural Science and History. If you can’t make it out to the park, don’t be afraid to bundle up your kids and let them play in your yard. They’ll love the time outside while you enjoy some peace and quiet inside.
