Christmas is a time for those you love, but often in the madness of running around looking after family and having annual catch-ups with friends you wish you saw more often, our closest relationships take a back seat.
Don’t forget that the mulled wine isn’t the only thing that could do with some spicing up this season – and follow our top tips for a ho, ho, whole load of fun this festive season…

Toys aren’t just for kids you know
Add a little sexy fun to the festivities by treating your other half to a sex toy or game as one of their Christmas gifts. You don’t have to jump straight in at the deep end; a cheeky board game will be enough to get the blood rushing. Of course of you’re feeling brave; there’s a wealth of options out there.
Party for two
Let’s be honest, those holiday gatherings can get dull night after night. Agree on a little secret roleplay with your other half to turn up the fun factor on the dullest gathering. Once you’re in, mingle and chat as you always too, but become ‘strangers’ to each other. Enjoy secret glances and cheeky whispers when you pass each other, but retain your airs of mystery to build anticipation for that eventual arrival home. Or a trip to the coats room… we’re not judging.
All wrapped up
Gifts aren’t the only thing that should be lying under that Christmas tree. Light the fire, turn the lights down and the music up, then enjoy a glass of wine and a slow and sexy session underneath the Christmas tree. Naturally, this one should be reserved for couples who live together and don’t have housemates. You might not think we need to point that out, but there’s always one.
Dear Santa…
List making is not just for children, you know. Suggest a sexual wish-list, where each of you will write down three fantasy sexual scenarios. Swap lists, then each partner should make one of their other half’s erotic dreams come true at some stage over the holidays, as the ultimate sexy surprise.
Staying in is the new going out
Tiredness is the ultimate buzz kill in the bedroom. When your bed is only used for sleeping, there is a problem. Count yourself out of the Christmas parties for at least one night, then get an early night where you won’t get any sleep at all – with any luck.
Bring in the New Year with a bang
Remember the spark back in the beginning? When you couldn’t keep your hands off each other? January can be a long and lean month. Keep it hot at home by resolving to have sex every day for the month. It will bring you closer as a couple, as well as getting you well on the way to that exercise plan you promised yourself…
