At a
Relief Society meeting two years ago, I heard the great idea of doing a family activity every day in December to countdown until Christmas. We started the tradition last year and were excited to carry it on again this year. Some of the activities are fun, some are service-based, others are spiritual in nature. Each day we read a scripture of the Christmas story, sing a hymn that Caden draws out of a tin, we move the advent calendar closer to Christmas and then Caden opens a present that says what we are going to do. Caden is excited all day long to open the presents!!
On Dec. 1st, we made a chain to count down the days until Christmas. I made these a lot growing up and it is fun to do it now with Caden. Of course we made a pattern with the paper. Caden was happy about that. :)
