As we head into the final countdown towards Christmas and the kiddos are on winter break, here are some fun ideas you can have with everyone’s favorite drink: hot cocoa!

4 Fun Ideas for Hot Cocoa with Kids1. Dress up your drink!

The latest trend is decadent milkshakes and drinks. Let your kids experiment with flavored whipped creams, colored marshmallows, sprinkles or drizzle chocolate or caramel sauce on top. BONUS TIP: Don’t leave Mommy out… She can dress up hers too with some Godiva Liqueur!

2. A Healthier Version (shhhh!)

If you’re looking for a healthy, yummy alternative for the kids, there are lots of recipes that don’t use a lot of sugar. Check out this healthy, easy recipe with almond milk.

3. Hot Cocoa Stand!

We may live in Florida, home of citrus, but this time of year, say goodbye to lemonade and hello to hot cocoa stands! Set the kids up with hot drink cups, hot cocoa mix, whipped cream, chocolate sprinkles and cute decor (you probably have a bunch out already for your holiday celebrations!). If your neighborhood has a lot of lights, this is a fun activity for the kids to do as people drive through to look at holiday light displays.

4. Hot Chocolate Bombs! (editor’s add!)

The latest craze it Hot Cocoa Bombs! They are so much fun and make great gifts! Place in a mug, pour hot milk into the mug and the chocolate melts and magically releases the marshmallows and cocoa hiding inside! We discovered a local company, S3 Creationz who makes yummy hot chocolate bombs! Check out our latest video on our IG Reels!
