As I continue sharing the fun activities happening at the local City of Ottawa Museums, I can’t help but think about how special events like this can be in creating family memories.

I know in our family, many outings become annual traditions. Or maybe it’s something we do once, but then recount year after year.

The Nepean Museum is hosting their Nepean Christmas Celebration on December 15th between  10 am and 4 pm.

Admissions is $17.25 per family; $6.50 single; and $10.75 per pair

There is no pre-registration required, so you can drop in at any time during the day when you find it’s easiest for all of you (I know what it’s like to make plans around nap times!) The activities will run all day.

I think you will LOVE all of the activities being offered:

Bring your camera or smart phone to snap a photo with Santa!

Ottawa Fantasy Face Painting will be at the museum with holiday and winter inspired designs!

Tree ornaments will be made and are inspired by the Nepean Bell

Kids can decorate a Christmas Card – perfect for sharing with family (grandparents love these!) or with friends. Maybe a teacher?

And possibly my favourite activity – families can decorate a Gingerbread house together!

All of the crafts are meant to be family projects, so adults will need to help little hands complete the activities. But that’s part of the fun, right?

Make new Christmas memories at the Nepean Museum on December 15th. It sounds like the entire day will be filled with festive fun, and takeaways the kids will love too.
