RAR #290: Holiday Traditions Don’t Have to be Big to be Memorable
Episode 290
Thursday, 29 October, 2026
✨ Christmas School is here! Get your simple plan for peaceful Christmas season and join us for a 3-week family book club looking at the Nativity with fresh eyes. Learn more! ✨We all want to make lasting memories with our kids, especially at this time of year. We want them to remember freshly-baked cookies, the fragrance of a freshly cut Christmas tree, the crackling warmth of a fire, the melody of your family’s favorite carols… The list goes on until suddenly we have a to-do list longer than the trek from Nazareth to Bethlehem.Christmas is naturally a time for memory-making. But it’s also a time that invites us to slow down and savor the season as we wait in joyful hope for the birth of our Lord. So this year, I want to invite you to take some of the pressure off of yourself to create grand traditions and make big, flashy memories. Because memory-making doesn’t have to be big or complicated to stay with you and your kids as they grow and eventually leave home. To prove it, today on the show, Audrey and I asked a few of our Read-Aloud Revival team members to share their favorite memories of growing up and from raising their own kids.In this episode, you’ll hear: Why holiday traditions don’t even have to happen every year to make lasting memoriesThe way a small, unexpected moment of joy or feeling seen by you can stay with a child for lifeWhy food is one of the best tools for making memories –– and it doesn’t have to be complicated or even homemade!Learn more about Sarah Mackenzie:Read-Aloud RevivalWaxwing BooksSubscribe to the NewsletterFind the rest of the show notes at: readaloudrevival.com/small-is-memorable
