Drop Off the Kids & Get Holiday Errands Done
So, you still need to trim the tree and stuff the stockings? Wouldn’t it be awesome if you could just say, “Alright, kid. I’m going out for a few hours. Try to stay alive.” Well, you can’t do that exactly, but you can find some perfect drop-off activities on Galore. That’s right, you can leave the littles for a bit, go run some errands (or just have a glass of wine — we won’t tell) and be on your merry way. Get all of your Christmas shopping done without the kids in tow.
