Once again it’s that time of Christmas lights, holiday music, watching videos of snow because Florida doesn’t snow. Most of all, the best part of the year is seeing all of the holiday trends that are posted on social media, as well as being done throughout family and friends.
At least one person has opened up Tiktok or Instagram and found a cute trend posted. Typically it’s something like a couple with matching Christmas pajamas, and that is truly the best part about the holiday season.
Just think about it, a nice chilly weekend with blankets on blankets with a cup of hot cocoa. A hallmark movie plays in the background with your best friend or significant other hy your side. That is what many people imagine when they see these videos on their feed.
Another holiday trend that is typically overlooked, but definitely amazing to see is where people will bake something with the classic holiday song playing in the background. There was one video in particular where a baked sugar cookie was topped with white frosting, a marshmallow, and other toppings to resemble a snowman. An idea like this would definitely work for Florida since it’s too hot to have snow, and it looked pretty delicious.
In the background of these trends, there are usually songs like ‘Jingle bell rock’ by Bobby Helms or “Holly Jolly Christmas” by Michael Bublé. Additionally, the upper part of the video usually has the treat they are making, lyrics for the song, a recipe, or some sort of ‘POV’ prompt on the screen, which is usually extremely relatable to most people who watch them.
Another classic trend that people do during the winter time is ice skating. Ice skating is a classic holiday thing to do, typically shown in holiday movies with the classic scene of the characters going ice skating. The activity is loads of fun, as well as it is something to do with your family or your friends.
If you celebrate Christmas, gift giving is one of the main things people partake in all around the world. A common tradition is having a secret santa with either your friends, family, or even classmates. In terms of gift giving, another crucial part is knowing what to get, so making a Christmas list whether it’s on a slide show or a good old fashioned paper Christmas list is a good idea.
The holiday isn’t complete without people posting dances they’ve either learned or choreographed to Christmas songs. It definitely gets people into the holiday spirit. As well as seeing people post their Christmas countdowns, or matching pajama pants with corresponding tops.
All of these things are definitely things that mark the start of the holiday season. Seeing all the trends definitely gets people inspired to get into the holiday spirit, and who knows, maybe inspire someone to partake in these classic holiday trends.
