Every year when I was growing up, we would do the 12 Days of Christmas to a few neighbors. I always thought I would get caught. However, I don’t think we ever did! Now that I’m a mom, I realize how much this service meant to those neighbors. This year, since we haven’t been able to see a lot of friends and neighbors, whey not do a secret 12 days of Christmas to them? I’m sure they would love it. This version is super simple and has some fun items to give. Feel free to change it up and add your own in. These ideas might get you started!
