It’s that time of the year—excitement in every corner. The season to kick back, relax, and celebrate love.
Despite a challenging year filled with bumps, and acknowledging that things may not be looking up for everyone, the Christmas spirit of love and togetherness should not be overshadowed.
As Christmas approaches, consider these budget-friendly plans to make the most of the holiday season:
Movie Marathon Night
Avoid the expensive cinema tickets during the Christmas holiday by organizing a movie marathon at home. With platforms like Netflix, Showmax, and Prime Video, you and your family can catch up on Nollywood, Hollywood, and K-drama hits from the year.
Local Foods
While the price of a bag of rice has risen, you can still celebrate the Nigerian Christmas tradition with local dishes. Explore options like Egusi soup, Ogbono soup, Banga soup, Vegetable soup accompanied by eba, semovita, or pounded yam—all prepared in large pots over a firewood stove.
Ankara Outfits
Opt for budget-friendly Ankara outfits for your children instead of expensive fancy attire. Select one or two Ankaras from your collection and find beautiful styles on Pinterest. Take them to your neighborhood tailor for a personalized and cost-effective holiday wardrobe.
Game Night
Plan a delightful game night with board games like chess, Ludo, and card games such as Whot. It’s a fun and inexpensive way to bond as a family during the festive season.
