The holidays are *right* around the corner, and we couldn't be more excited. Turns out, Maddie Ziegler is pretty stoked, too. The dancer, actor and author spilled on all the amazing holiday festivities she seriously can't wait for. 

1. QT with fam and friends
Just like the rest of us, the holidays are time for Maddie to kick back and relax with her friends and family. “For holidays, that’s the one time that I get to stay home with my family and friends. I’m constantly traveling and working and my only downtime really to spend time with my family is during Christmas and New Year,” she dished.

2. *Allllll* the Christmas decorations
Who doesn’t love sparking up the Christmas lights each year? “Christmas is my favorite just because I love the decorations.” Us too!

3. Ugly Christmas sweater parties
Mad loves them so much that she and her friends have epic dance parties wearing them. “We all wear our ugly Christmas sweaters and our onesies and all of that and have a great time,” she said. We can’t wait to take our ugly sweaters out of our closets!

4. Holiday music
Who doesn’t jam out to Mariah Carey’s "All I Want for Christmas is You" during holiday time?! We know we do! Maddie would probably be the first one to start dancing when it comes on. “Christmas music is the best music.!” Her love for Christmas music (and friendship with Sia) even led her to be the album cover for Sia’s new holiday album, Everyday is Christmas (Nov. 17). "Her Christmas album is full of original songs. I can’t wait for everyone to hear them. They’re awesome!” We can’t wait to listen either!

Are you ready for the holidays? What about the music? Let us know in the comments!
