Here in Panama holidays usually mean lots of food, lots of days off from work, and lots of kids, teenagers and adults hanging around with nothing to do except watch TV.

If you take some time before the holidays, you can program a few fun activities to keep everyone interested and have some good family time together.   If you are single, you can take advantage of the decorating ideas or the fun games to spend time with close friends.

I have included the general holidays, but later on I will add more specific ones to the US, Panama, Latin America and Europe and of course the different faiths.
