Holiday Traditions will no doubt be much different this year. And, while we may be wishing for the Holidays of old, the true meaning of the Holiday Season cannot be missed this year: spending true quality time with family, friends (in your bubble, of course) and caring for our local communities. This year more than ever, our local small business need our love and support.

So, light your favorite candle, pour some wine (or mix up a cocktail), tell Alexa to play your favorite holiday tunes and start your Holiday shopping early by supporting these incredible small businesses.

Stay tuned for our upcoming Local Gift Guides featuring more local small businesses in the Edmonds and Seattle area.

ACTIVITIES

• Stock up on Puzzles from Edmonds Bookshop and Teri’s Toybox.
• Bundle up for a Wreath Scavenger hunt with the family to burn off some of those Holiday calories (which, in my opinion, don’t really count).
• Sign up for Canlis Community College and dive head first into their library of unique content and classes. There is also a kids section that will keep the kids busy while you do all the things (or just take a break from 2020).
• Head to the Edmonds Holiday Market for fresh Nutella smothered donuts, handmade goodies and holiday music…don’t forget your mask!
