Counting down to Christmas: 2 and finally 1 day to go...

2 and finally 1 day to go...

Unfortunately we had visitors so the kids were not able to do the activity in box #2. I'll have to keep in mind for next year that the week leading up to Christmas is a bit too busy and I would need to rethink some of the activities I plan for that week.

But... we made sure we did the activity in box #1 :-)

The activity was to make some biscuits and put biscuits and milk (for Santa) and water and carrots (for the reindeer) ready on Christmas Eve.

'twas the night before Christmas and our little tree (aka advent calendar) was bare...

About the Advent Calendar project

This year I decided to make my girls their very own advent calendar. I made 48 little gift boxes (24 for each girl) and inside is a little chocolate, but also a fun activity we could do all the way until the 24th of December. The focus is on fun, tv-free (except for the movie day) and creative activities that we could do together and one of the activities will be about "giving". Where you make something and give it to somebody without expecting anything back in return. That it is all about making others happy and brightening their day.

This year, the countdown sure will be a whole lot more fun :-) and hopefully the start of a new tradition which one day the girls might want to share with their kids.
