Christmas lights and holiday activities are back this December, and that's just the beginning of all the top things do in Connecticut with kids this month.

The lights are in full-sparkle mode, and holiday activities (even FREE ones!) are happening all across Connecticut for families to put in their festive calendars. Take an evening and drive through one of the great light displays happening all over the state. If you are looking for a daytime activity, your kids might enjoy a visit with Santa Claus or a visit to Powder Ridge for their Lifted Spirits Festival. Light the Menorah in New London and other towns and don't forget to get your reindeer snuggles in.

Let us help you with 50 Fun Elf on the Shelf Ideas and our list of Best Holiday Light Drive Thrus. If you are looking for more holiday fun, our Complete Guide to Holiday Events in Connecticut will brighten your day!
