Yesterday I started and finished a new handmade Christmas Advent Calendar with the help of hubby and the kids.
It is a wooden advent tree made from a pallet we have had lying around for ages. And the bags are made from a charm pack of 'In from the Cold'. Inside each bag is 24 different advent activities.
Those activities included some of the following ideas:
- Put up and Decorate the Christmas Tree
- Make Christmas Cookies
- Make paper chains to decorate the house with
- Watch a Christmas movie
- Make salt dough decorations
- Make candy cane bark
- Checkout the neighbourhood Christmas Lights
- Make a Christmas movie message to send to friends and family
- Go on a candy cane hunt
- Do some Christmas colouring in
- Make red and green playdough
- Listen to Christmas songs
- Make Christmas cards for friends and family
- Make gifts for school friends
- Make reindeer food
- Do some Christmas crafts
- Read Christmas books
- Have a loungeroom slumber party and watch as many Christmas movies as we can
- Decorate Christmas biscuits
- Make food treats to give to friends and neighbours
- Make a list of things that you are thankful for
- Make new decorations for the Christmas tree
- Make Christmas tree brownies
- Open one Christmas gift
What kind of Advent activities do you do?
