I’ve really been in the holiday spirit this season, but it seems today has reached to a fever pitch. So now I’m in the mood to fiddle with something online relating to Christmas, although I have no idea what that would be. In the past, I’ve made snowflakes or decorated rooms and trees. Sadly this year I’m lost. Anyone have any ideas?

My daughter and I have been playing games on [www.noradsanta.org](http://www.noradsanta.org) all month. Most are kids games but they are fun.

And you could always elf yourself!

Someone at work had sent a lot of Christmas greetings both cheerful (for kiddies) and insulting (for adults) using [Portable North Pole](http://portablenorthpole.tv/home)

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I’ve wasted more time with snowflakes over the years, it’s ridiculous. The only difference is I use this site: [SnowDays!](http://www.popularfront.com/snowdays/) 'cause the ‘cutting’ is a bit easier. 🙂

Someone else posted the [Chin Christmas Carolers](http://www.sundog.net/carolofthechins/flash/card.swf)in a different thread.  
There’s also JibJab’s [Elf Yourself](http://www.elfyourself.com/) and [MovieMaker](http://sendables.jibjab.com/section/sy_movies) sites.
