Fun Ways to Count Down to Christmas

Counting down to Christmas can make the holiday season even more exciting!

1. Create a DIY Advent Calendar

• Use small boxes, envelopes, or jars to hold surprises for each day.

• Fill them with candy, tiny toys, or fun activity ideas like “Make hot cocoa.”

• Customize it with decorations to suit your family’s style.

2. Make a Christmas Book Countdown

• Wrap 24 holiday-themed books.

• Open one each evening for a festive bedtime story.

• Use library books to keep costs low and variety high.

3. Do a Kindness Countdown

• Write 24 acts of kindness on a calendar or slips of paper.

• Examples: Donate to a charity, bake cookies for neighbors, or leave a kind note.

• Enjoy the joy of giving while counting down the days.

4. Build a Paper Chain

• Cut colorful paper into strips and make a chain with 24 links.

• Decorate the links with drawings, stickers, or glitter.

• Tear one link off each day as Christmas gets closer.

5. Start a Holiday Activity Jar

• Write 24 festive activities like “Decorate the tree” or “Watch a Christmas movie.”

• Place them in a jar and pick one out daily.
