Christmas ideas for almost 2 year old

Looking for gift ideas and any traditions others are doing.  My son doesn't quite get it yet but would like to start some family traditions.  Already do the night before gift with pj's and a book.

    We do one Christmas thing each weekend beginning the weekend after Remembrance Day (Nov. 11).

    Wkend 1 - We watched a Christmas movie while we ate Christmas cookies and had hot chocolate for the first time (she is almost 24 months old so it was really milk with a bit of hot chocolate for colour and flavour)

    Wkend 2 - We went on the Santa train

    Wkend 3 - We went to the Festival of Lights in our town

    Wkend 4 (this weekend coming up) - Santa Claus parade in our town

    Wkend 5 (next weekend) - We are going to go on a Christmas Lights Scavenger Hunt on our way back from visiting family.

    Wkend 6 - Making a gingerbread house

    Weekend after is Christmas!

    DS is 17 months old. We started elf on the shelf and he loves it. Every morning we go downstairs and he immediately looks for his elf, it's really cute.
    I have tried to keep Christmas present simple as he may or may not even care about opening gifts. So far I've gotten him:
    Table and chair set
    A train and track set
    Cars and a road rug
    Books/puzzles
    Some Mickey Mouse items (toys, a book bag and clothing)
    A big tractor
    Blocks
    Mickey Mouse couch

    I kee reminding myself that I need to keep it simple but it's sooooo hard!

    He has a play kitchen which I recommend to everyone. He loves it.  We actually just got him a mini shopping cart. He also likes to push things around. @mhwood what is this Christmas light scavenger hunt? This sounds interesting.

    I got the idea off Pinterest. If you search "Christmas Light Scavenger Hunt" it will come right up. There are a ton of cute, free/cheap, easy ideas on there.
