5 Fun Winter Things To Do with Your Friends

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Pepperdine chapter.

1. Ice Skating

Ice skating is always a fun way to kick off the holiday season and give yourself a taste of the winter season, even with sunny skies and 75 degree weather.

 

2. Christmas Tree Shopping and Decorating

Wandering through aisles of trees is a great and really cheap holiday event. You don’t have to buy a Christmas tree. You can just look and run around and laugh with your friends and then go buy a cheap little Charlie Brown tree and continue the holiday spirit by decorating your temporary little lovely tree.

 

3. Wrapping Party

Whether you’re doing Secret Santa or not, everyone has at least one Christmas present they need to wrap. So make a night out of it and rock out to classic while wrapping your presents and eating Christmas cookies.

 

4. Stocking Decorating

Who doesn’t love stockings? Make some memories at the same time you customize and decorate some stockings. You can decorate your own or do a twist on secret Santa and decorate one of your friends.

 

5. Santa Hat Customization

Nothing says Christmas like Santa Claus, so rock some customized Santa hats that you make with your friends. No matter what, they’ll be cute as hell and look great in Christmas pictures.

This is my senior year of college and I'm a Public Relations major with a Creative Writing outside concentration. I was born and raised in So-Cal and love it so much I couldn't go too far. As much as South California is my home, I adore traveling and learning about other cultures. A Disney fan to the core you can find me watching any of their movies, or breaking my bank account at Disneyland, and if not I'll probably be reading, writing, or enjoying the Malibu climate.
