13 fun holiday activities to keep the kids occupied all week long

If your kids are anything like mine, they're dogging your heels and sneaking under the Christmas tree to peek at presents any chance that they can get. So I'm desperate to find anything to keep them occupied for the next 24 hours until Santa arrives--and frankly, through the rest of winter break.

Here's a handy round-up of some of the crafts, activities, fun apps, holiday movies, and other ideas we've featured that are sure to keep your kids entertained while you finish up your gift-wrapping, or start your own thank-you note writing.

Which, by the way, is one of the activities kids can do too.
