Christmas and Hanukkah Scratchers

Written by Carrie Anne

The best part of the holidays in our house is the anticipation, the days leading up to the big event. Put the shopping and wrapping and Christmas cards, I’m talking about good ole family fun.

Raincoast Book’s Christmas Scratchers and Hanukkah Scratchers are all about holiday family fun. Each booklet contains 40 interactive cards containing jokes, craft ideas, puzzles and more fun stuff. Just scratch-off the coated area and reveal what your festive fun for the day will be.

We’ve been using the Christmas Scratchers in our home; they are a great way to keep the kids occupied. My 9-year old choose a Home Scavenger Hunt with the Elves. She scratched off each stocking on the card to reveal something she had to find around the house. When everything was collected, the last spot was her challenge: make holiday cards using the materials she found. She loved this, both the hunt and the card making.

All the cards are different. Christmas Charades: scratch off a present to see what you are to act out with your friends. The Gift of Giving: scratch off a star to reveal a festive idea for doing good and giving to others. There are even cards to help you with those difficult holiday decisions – what Christmas themed movie to watch first.

The Hanukkah Scratchers are the same idea but with different themes, like Hanukkah Ha-Ha’s, Spin the Dreidel, Start a New Tradition.

The Christmas Scratchers and Hanukkah Scratchers are like a fun lottery ticket the whole family can enjly. They can be used or given as a full book or you can pull one card out, great to give to classmates and friends. Let the family fun begin!
