In November, the Hawaiian Shaved Ice team put together a November Bucket list full of fun activities to celebrate fall and Thanksgiving. Since we are already into December, we thought it would be fun to make another list. This time, our team has assembled a list of 25 Days of Christmas Activities. These activities are great to celebrate the season and are perfect for the whole family.
