Here are five team sports that are safe (non-contact), cheap, easy, and fun, and your kid can play them in the backyard or park with very little equipment and only a few other teammates or opponents. One trip to the sporting goods store and a little imagination, and Junior will be safely occupied for hours. All for $20 and under.

Decorating for Christmas doesn't have to be a hassle. Many unique and interesting decorations can be made by using items you already have around the house or that you can find in the backyard.

Fill a basket with red and green balls of yarn. Place shiny apples in a mixing bowl in the kitchen. Fill a red mug with peppermint sticks tied with a red ribbon. Red or Green scarves can be draped over lamps and used as tablecloths on end tables.
