There are so many great Christmas family traditions. Here at I Spot Santa, one of our favorite Christmas traditions has to be coming together to bake Christmas recipes. This is a great time to spend with family and a great way to spread holiday cheer.
When you make your favorite Christmas recipes, you can enjoy them for yourself. Take them to your holiday party, or deliver them to a neighbor or friend who may need some cheering up. We love making Christmas recipes and giving them to others to show them the real spirit of Christmas.

Baking Christmas bread has been a fun family tradition for many years! In fact, the elves tell us that this tradition has been around since the 1400s. Christmas bread isn’t the same bread you use on your lunch sandwiches! They are sweet, delicious bread that the whole family is going to love.
There are a lot of different Christmas breads, but these two are Mrs. Claus’ favorites:

According to the elves, Mrs. Claus encourages everyone to bake these with their parents, siblings or best friends. When you are done, try some for yourself. Then bring the rest in to share with your class or for your next Christmas party. Always remember to bake with a grownup and save us a cookie too!
