With most holiday vacations starting in just a few shorts days, I’ve been thinking about how to make it an extra special time in my home. I feel like every year the school and work break seems to sneak up on me and I find myself totally unprepared to make the amazing memories that I’ve been looking forward to all year long. I always think that a full week of holiday fun will be more than enough but then it flies by and I can’t ever remember all of the activities that were on my to-do list, much less actually make them happen. So this year, I’m doing things differently. I’m being intentional about that magical week surrounding Christmas and I’m creating a Printable Holiday Bucket List to ensure that when the new year rolls around and the kids head back to school, we’ll have tons of memories to hold on to until next year.
So why a holiday bucket list you ask? Well, this time of the year gets a little crazy at our house. Between balancing all the kid’s activities and my own life, there are times when it seems like the holiday season slips by without us doing any of the things that we always anticipate. BUT, I’ve discovered that just like me, if my kids have a list to check off, they stay on task and more importantly keep me accountable for all the fun holiday fun we want to have. So, in order to ensure that we don’t miss a moment of the holiday fun we’ve created a printable holiday bucket list that pretty much covers every holiday activity our hearts desire!
Now I’ll admit that it’s an ambitious list. But in my mind, it’s an amazing way to make sure this Christmas break is the best one ever! However, since it’s going to take some planning and juggling, I’m making sure that in additional to my holiday bucket list I also have Zicam® Cold Remedy Nasal Swabs on hand.
Before you get all confused about why Zicam® Cold Remedy Nasal Swabs go hand in hand with my holiday bucket list, let me explain. You already know how forward I look to the holidays. But something you don’t know is that I almost ALWAYS get a cold during Christmas week. Maybe it’s stress. Maybe it’s the fact that I’m outside in the frigid temperatures having fun with the kids. Maybe it’s just my body’s cruel trick. But no matter what the reason is, it always seems to happen. This probably explains why I usually don’t get through my list of holiday fun that I hope will be had. But this year, I’m determined that a holiday cold won’t leave me saying ba-humbug! Instead, in addition to my well planned out holiday bucket list, I’m making sure I have Zicam® Cold Remedy Nasal Swabs at the ready.
As the only nasal swab that can shorten colds when taken at the first sign, they are a must if I want to check every single item off my holiday bucket list. And since they also reduce cold symptom severity by 45% by the mid-point of a cold when I start using them at the first sign of my symptoms, they help ensure that even if I do get a cold, it doesn’t slow me down!
As an added bonus, I can simply add them to my Santa-sized bag (AKA my purse) and know that I’m prepared for that first tickle in the back of my throat or the first sign of a runny nose. When it happens (and it always does), I simply snap my Zicam® Cold Remedy Nasal Swabs open and use the proprietary swab form to deliver the zinc-free homeopathic formula right when I need it!
I receive relief with a gentle application that ensures the patented formula of Zicam® Cold Remedy Nasal Swabs is delivered with where I need it, right when I need it!
Then I can quickly and easily go back to checking every item off of my holiday bucket list to ensure that this holiday season is just as amazing as I want it to be thanks to the cold shortening power of Zicam. Instead, I’m able to be present, do more with the kids and most importantly make amazing, merry memories each and every day!

Zicam works wonders with our kids. Sometimes it’s not even about the holiday bucket list but just making it through.
