Picking a Christmas theme each year can be a cool way to bond with your family and make some awesome memories. My tradition started way back when I was a kid, with my sister and I rocking matching Christmas PJs on Christmas Eve. It turned into a family thing, and now we have a blast coming up with new themes every year. And what’s more fun than dressing up your whole family in matching PJs, right? Check out some fun ideas below, and click the links to get inspired on Amazon for choosing a theme and getting everyone coordinated in style:

1. Consider your family’s interests:

Are you all huge fans of a particular movie or TV show? Do you love a specific color or pattern? Use these interests as inspiration for your theme. Here are some inspirations similar to themes we have done in the past: Star Wars, Nation Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, and A Christmas Story. If you are doing the Polar Express train ride this year, you could also do themes like Disney, Harry Potter, or Polar Express (full family matching option). (All links are Sponsored)

2. Think outside the box:

While traditional holiday themes like “Santa Claus” or “Snowflakes” are fun, don’t be afraid to get creative with your theme. Maybe you want to do a tropical Christmas or retro 80s theme. The possibilities are endless! We did a COVID survival, The University of Georgia, most likely and ugly Christmas sweater themes. You can always do any matching t-shirts and then find a matching or color theme for the bottoms separately ( Womens,Men). If you are more DIY, you can always make your own shirts, which usually involve multiple Cricut products, which my mother has used for years. (All links are Sponsored)

3. Don’t forget your pets:

Today, you can find pajama sets and sweaters out there that come with matching outfits that include pets. However, if you prefer a set without pets included, you can still color-coordinate with your furry friend by choosing from a range of dog pajamas, bandanas, and sweaters available in the market. Check out the photo below to see how we did in the past. (All links are Sponsored)

Don’t be scared of taking pictures of your adorable pups because it has become much easier with your phones. You don’t need to set a timer and rush to be in the picture. I know I just showed my age there. Just wait for your furry friend(s) to look in the right direction. Then snap a photo with a button click like the one we use these days. If you want to grab their attention, use treats and toys. They can be your best pals, just like with kids when taking photos. You can strategically place a toy to ensure he/she faces the correct direction. (All links are Sponsored)

4. Coordinate your Pajamas:

One last thing to consider before making your purchases is choosing your theme. It’s essential to find matching family pajamas. They should come in a variety of sizes and styles. This ensures everyone’s comfort and confidence. This way, each family member can enjoy a cozy and stylish outfit that reflects the chosen theme. We also consider the different heights and body types in our family. We ensure everyone feels included and looks great in their pajamas. This creates a memorable and joyful experience for all.
