#BestTimeToBeAKid
The arrival of the first snowflake has always signaled the start of winter for me. It’s like a quiet invitation to the holiday season, swirling and dancing with the wind in a magical waltz. Those delicate flakes carry whispers of joy, laughter, and the warmth of family gatherings. When my daughter was born, those same flakes became the backdrop to our new family traditions—like peering out the window together to marvel at the falling snow while preparing to decorate the Christmas tree. There's something incredibly cozy about sitting by a crackling fire, sipping steaming hot cocoa, and letting the Christmas tunes guide our hands as we hang tinsel and ornaments. I remember vividly how wide-eyed Aliyah would get, exclaiming "Pitty tee!" (which meant "pretty tree") as her excitement matched mine beat-for-beat. Though we don’t see snowflakes fall outside our windows anymore after moving to Florida, our traditions remain vibrant. The fireplace, hot chocolate, and carols are still central to our tree-trimming celebrations—but now, the joy is multiplied threefold as our three children dive into the magic.
There’s an indescribable charm to experiencing the holidays through the eyes of young ones. Watching them anticipate every detail, from picking out pajamas for our Christmas Eve tradition to brainstorming recipes for holiday baking—it fills me with such gratitude. Their enthusiasm is infectious, making every moment feel richer and more meaningful. Even small changes to our old traditions, like our new Christmas Day trip to Miami Beach instead of snow-covered landscapes, only add to the uniqueness of our family story.
Gymboree has been celebrating the idea that the holidays are truly "the best time to be a kid," and they’ve collaborated with families like Mario and Courtney Lopez to highlight their own festive highlights. Through their campaign, Gymboree invites parents everywhere to share their own #BestTimetoBeaKid moments on social media.

As we embrace this season, I’m reminded of how precious these moments are. Whether it’s the sparkle of lights, the aroma of gingerbread cookies, or simply the sound of giggles echoing through the house, every detail feels significant. I’d love to hear about your own cherished holiday memories and traditions—feel free to share them with me!
