After the presents -- now what? (Tip Sheet Thursday)

 

As a Christmas present to myself, I am not coming up with tips on this special Thursday. Instead, I throw the floor open to you. 

After the presents have been opened and played with for a while, after the dinner has been cooked and consumed, what are your tips on preserving the spirit of the day?

I overheard a mom at school the other day saying her family has planned a series of musical performances for each other. Sounds wonderful.
