You are so organized this year! You've wrapped and shipped presents, arranged holiday menus, and coordinated homecomings from far-flung family members. Once the excitement of Christmas Day is over, your kids (and perhaps the grandkids) may be looking for things to do between December 25 and New Year's Eve.
Fortunately, you live in central New Hampshire, where winter is an opportunity for cold-weather sports and where charming New England towns host events that celebrate the season. Don't let the week between Christmas and New Year's Day turn into screen marathons. We've rounded up some events and activities the whole family can enjoy.

Carve a Path Through the Snow
Skiing is at the top of our list. Head to Ski NH to find deals on downhill, cross-country, snow tubing, and snowboarding. Or bundle up for a sleigh ride at Bretton Woods. Some of our favorite ski resorts include: Attitash Mountain in Bartlett Bretton Woods Ski Area in Bretton Woods Cannon Mountain in FranconiaSee a Victorian-Era Play in Meredith
The Winnipesaukee Playhouse stages "The Little Mermaid" through December 31 in Meredith. This is not the Disney version. This production is a traditional English "panto"--a musical that features showtunes, dancing, humor, and slapstick. Small children will have fun and so will teens and adults.Celebrate New Year's Eve All Day in Wolfeboro
