Families should always have something to look forward to.
My friend, Robyn directed me to The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Families audio-book, and in it Stephen R. Covey suggests that families should always be looking forward to something, whether it's a holiday, birthday, special weekend—whatever. The anticipation of a celebration is as exciting as the actual celebration, he thinks.
He (and Robyn) feel that it's important for kids to get involved with the planning of special occasions and in Robyn's words "have a voice".
