Holiday Traditions

Are you going to be celebrating Christmas at your lakefront home at the Lake of the Ozarks? Whether your home at Mission Bay is your permanent home or your second home, it creates the perfect backdrop for holding any holiday get together. At Mission Bay, you also have access to the clubhouse and indoor pool. Check out these great holiday traditions you and your family are sure to love!


Make hot cocoa and drive around and look at Christmas lights.


Christmas lights are full of holiday cheer. Getting into the holiday spirit with Christmas lights is a great event for the whole family. You can make an entire night out of it by making (or buying) hot chocolate and driving around through different neighborhoods or light shows looking at all of the magical lights.

Give matching pajamas for every family member on Christmas Eve.


Having matching pajamas on Christmas Eve is a perfect time for photos! Each year you could have a different theme and everyone can help pick out the type of pajamas. This is a great time to bond with your family and spend some quality time together.

Take your kids shopping for a toy to donate.


‘Tis the season for giving! What better way to teach kids the true meaning of Christmas than to take them shopping to pick out a toy for someone less fortunate? There are many programs around the community where you can help a child in need or maybe they know someone personally who could use a little Christmas spirit this holiday season. Not only will they understand the importance of the holiday season, but giving and helping someone less fortunate is rewarding.


Make gingerbread houses with the whole family.


This is one activity that everyone will love. When it comes to creating gingerbread houses, there are endless possibilities. Whether you buy a gingerbread house kit or you are a do it yourself, kids and adults will be able to tap into their creative side and create a one of a kind creation. You can even create a village or a neighborhood with all of your houses.

Bake cookies with the kids.


This is a tradition that is a staple in many households. Not only is it a great way to get the kids involved, but it’s a tradition that is usually passed down from generation to generation. You can even make this more meaningful by using recipes that have been passed down. What’s better than spending time with your family and being able to enjoy delicious cookies at the same time?

Have a camp out one night under the Christmas tree.


There is something so magical about the Christmas tree and the lighting it provides. Why not create a pile of pillows and blankets and have a slumber party under the Christmas tree? You can even watch a marathon of Christmas movies and enjoy the delicious Christmas cookies you have baked.
