Tips for Making Each Holiday More Fun

Holidays are already packed with joy, food, and family time, but why stop there? Whether it's Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, or even National Donut Day (yes, that’s a thing—and yes, you should celebrate), we believe every holiday deserves an extra dose of fun! Here’s how to take your celebrations to the next level, with everything from family matching holiday PJs to spreading some holiday cheer.

Why You Should Make Every Holiday Special

Every celebration—big or small—is an opportunity to create core memories, indulge in a little extra fun, and, let’s be honest, wear incredibly comfy pajamas while doing it. Whether it’s a major festivity like Christmas or an underappreciated gem like National Pancake Day, putting in a little extra effort makes every occasion feel like a party. Plus, themed snacks, silly traditions, and festive jammies? That’s the secret recipe for legendary holidays.

Here are our top ideas for making every holiday special:

1. Get Festive with Fashion
   Every holiday is an excuse to wear something outrageously fun. Family matching holiday PJs for Christmas? Check! Turkey-themed socks for Thanksgiving? Oh, absolutely. Bunny slippers for Easter? Hoppin’ to it! Don’t forget, themed pajamas make everything better.
   
   
2. Create Your Own Wacky Traditions
   Sure, carving pumpkins and decorating Christmas trees are classic, but why not mix it up? Try a Thanksgiving pajama brunch, where stuffing yourself is encouraged, but wearing stuffy clothes isn’t. Or start a New Year’s “Polar Pajama Plunge”—a quick dash outside in your coziest PJs to wake up before ringing in the new year. (Extra points if there’s snow.)
   
   
3. Competitive Holiday Spirit
   Holidays aren’t just about love and togetherness; they’re also about crushing your family in totally pointless but hilarious competitions. Who can wrap a present the fastest… blindfolded? Who can eat the most Valentine’s Day chocolates without using their hands? Who has the ugliest, most glorious Christmas sweater? The winner gets eternal bragging rights—or at least an extra slice of pie.
   
   
4. Food, Glorious Food!
   No holiday is complete without an excessive amount of deliciousness. But why not get creative? Make pancake snowmen for breakfast in December, spooky-shaped cookies in October, or heart-shaped pizzas in February. And if anyone questions your culinary choices, just tell them you’re embracing the true spirit of the holiday: eating like a champion.
   
   
5. Pajamas All Day? Yes, Please!
   We fully support the movement for wearing PJs all day on any holiday (and honestly, most non-holidays too). Cozy jammies aren’t just for sleeping—they’re for opening presents, devouring Thanksgiving leftovers, and lounging in a chocolate-induced coma after Halloween. Plus, if you get family matching holiday PJs, you’ll be festive and comfortable. Win-win.
   
   
6. Movie Marathons with a Twist
   Watching classic holiday movies is great, but adding a fun twist is even better. Turn it into a pajama party, complete with themed snacks. (Pumpkin spice popcorn, anyone?) Or play holiday movie bingo—check off every time someone says “It’s a Christmas miracle!” or an animated turkey shows up on screen.
   
   
7. Spreading Holiday Cheer (Even If It’s Not December)
   Who says holiday cheer is only for one time of year? Keep the festive vibes going all year round. Hand out random Halloween candy in March. Belt out Christmas carols in July. Dress like a leprechaun in September (just to confuse people). The world needs more unexpected joy—and you can be the hero it deserves.

Make Every Holiday Lazy and Legendary

The key to a fun holiday? Less stress, more laughs, and an extra helping of comfort (preferably in the form of PJs). Whether you’re making up new traditions, wearing ridiculous outfits, or just finding any excuse to snack, every holiday can be legendary. So, grab your coziest jammies from our family matching pajamas collection, cue up the holiday tunes, and make some memories—one laugh at a time!
