How Planning Christmas in Summer Can Create a More Magical Holiday for Your Kids

Christmas in Flip-Flops? Why Summer is the Secret to a Magical Holiday Season

It’s July in Indiana—the kids are chasing fireflies, the grill is sizzling, and Santa is probably the last person on your mind. But here's a little secret: the happiest holiday memories often begin in summer. While others scramble in the snow, more Indiana families are discovering the magic of early holiday planning—starting with their Christmas lights.

Here’s why planning now creates more magic (and less madness) later.

1. More Time for What Matters Most

Let’s face it—December is a whirlwind. When you’ve already taken care of your holiday lighting by midsummer, you’ve freed up weeks of to-do list stress. That means:

• More cozy cocoa nights by the fire

• More time helping your kids write letters to Santa

• More evenings spent making memories—not making tangled light repairs

2. Your Kids Deserve the Wow Factor

We all remember that feeling: turning the corner and seeing your house glowing with lights, knowing Santa could see it from the sky.
With professional Christmas light installation for families, your home becomes a magical backdrop for:

• Holiday photos in matching PJs

• Impromptu sleigh-bell scavenger hunts

• Giggles and wide-eyed wonder when the lights flip on at night

And when you plan in summer, we can build a custom design just for your home—something no store-bought string of lights can match.

3. You Get First Dibs on Everything

Booking in June or July means:

• Early access to our premium design slots

• Your choice of light styles, colors, and add-ons (yes, we do roofline twinkles and lit garlands!)

• Priority scheduling for install and takedown

We even save your setup for next year so you can relive the magic all over again—with zero hassle.

4. Create Traditions—Without the To-Do List

Indiana families love Blue Duck’s all-inclusive holiday lighting experience. We handle:

• Design

• Installation

• Maintenance

• Takedown

• Storage

So you can focus on cookie baking, snowball fights, and reading 'Twas the Night Before Christmas by the tree.

And don’t forget—our early booking families get access to Frosty Fest, an invite-only Santa experience complete with crafts, photos, and mimosas for the parents. 🎅✨

5. Make the Holidays Feel Like a Gift Again

The best gifts aren’t under the tree—they’re the moments we share. When you plan ahead, you’re not just installing lights. You’re making space for:

• Joy

• Laughter

• Connection

And giving your children a season they’ll never forget.
