11 Ways The Holidays Are The Best Way To Relive Your Childhood

"Where can I submit my list?!" When it's time to do your holiday shopping, head to Gap. Remember, you don't have to get them, to give them Gap.

1. Every year when you decorate the tree, you get to open a time capsule of ornaments that flood you with memories...

Like sweet old haircuts and fashion choices. You start to wonder if you could rock a pair of overalls again... Who are you kidding? Of course you can!

2. ...and whip up those homemade treats, just like your Nana used to make.

They only look as good as Nana's if you squint, but they taste just as good!

3. You rewatch all your favorite holiday movies from when you were a kid over and over, and no one bats an eye.

"You guys give up? Or ya thirsty for more?"

4. You pack your favorite PJs and spend a few nights at your parents' house...

And between free food and laundry, you quickly remember what it was like to live with all of your parents' endearing qualities.

5. ...and get a rush when you wake up on Christmas morning in your childhood, twin-size bed.

Only now it's because you can’t wait to give everyone their presents.

6. If you have a niece or nephew, you can spoil them with the toys you always wanted.

Looks like you can finally check "get the coolest toy that all the others are going to be jealous of" off your bucket list — and it only took 22 years!

7. You get to be crafty...

Except you've graduated beyond hand turkeys.

You've always looked great as an elf. And who doesn't love a novelty apron?

9. You'll still make a countdown calendar because vacation can't come soon enough.

10. Even though you're 30, there’s a good chance you have to sit at the "kids'" table...

But then you remember it was always more fun. Also, wine!

11. ...and still have a blast playing games with your family once dinner is over.

You've almost grown out of your competitive phase too. :)

You see everyone you haven’t seen since the last big get-together.
