There's nothing quite like seeing a child's face light up during the holiday season! And if this year's festivities include family get-togethers or even a photo session for a holiday card, why not take things to the next level with a fun hairstyle for the occasion.
We love this reindeer bun – and it’s pretty easy to pull off. First, pull the hair into a tight ponytail. Use a hair donut and roll the ponytail around it to create a bun. Spread the hair around the donut and secure with a few pins. Then, take a red pompom and put a pin in it. Secure it in the middle of the bun to create Rudolph’s nose. Glue googly eyes to bobby pins and place into the top of the bun above the pompom. Make antlers out of pipe cleaners and place on top of the bun. How cute! |

Russian twist with ball slam
- Start sitting on the ground, with your feet bent in front of you. Lean your chest back without rounding your spine. Grip a weighted ball with your hands. Twist your upper body to one side, then slam the weighted ball down to the ground. Pick it up and repeat on the other side. If you don't have a weighted ball at home, you could use a basketball. Continue alternating for 10 reps.
Falling star:
- Start in a high plank position, with your hands flat on the floor. Lift your right arm straight into the air. As you shift your body to the side, stretch your left leg across the floor. Repeat on the other side. Continue alternating for 10 reps.
Punch plank
- Start in an elbow plank position. Keeping your body in a parallel line with the floor, tighten your hands into fists. Keeping your lower body as still as possible, punch the air in front of your right arm, then left. Continue alternating for 10 reps.

| A great way to ease yourself into a party is to find the person in the center of the circle, regaling bystanders with stories. If you're an introvert, or a slow-to-warm-up extrovert, slipping into a chat with the friendly extrovert takes the pressure off. You can focus on doing what you do best, which is listening and asking good follow-up questions. |
