All movie theaters in Brooklyn are open on Christmas Day. There are so many movies out that I would recommend seeing! Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues, The Hobbit, Frozen, Tyler Perry’s A Madea Christmas, Saving Mr. Banks and Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom ( Plenty, Plenty, more!)

3. Ice Skating!

With new rinks in Brooklyn’s MaCarren and Prospect Park, this would be the perfect way to have some fun while gliding on the ice! If it’s too cold for you there is also an indoor rink at Brooklyn’s Aviator Sports located: Floyd Bennett Field, 3159 Flatbush Avenue. Aviator Sports Rink is only $9 for adults, $7 for children; $5 for skate rental.

5. Volunteer Your Time

Last but not least, why don’t you help someone out in need? There are many people who have less than what you have. Some people just want a hot meal for Christmas. Cook up some food and travel around Brooklyn handing out meals to anyone in need. Pack up some toys and visit a hospital and deliver them to children who would rather be at home with their families. Give back your time, energy and/or money! Tis’ the season!

Happy Holidays Brooklyn! Let me know what you did on Christmas!
