It's so pretty out today, but brrrr! Anyone doing an advent calendar? What do you do? We aren't doing an organized agent calendar, but are doing an activity a day. We are also going to do this, and if I remember/have a chance, will make one for a few neighbors, too.
It is definitely cold. Poor H spent 10 minutes this morning defrosting his door lock on his commuter car just so he could get in the car only to then spend another while defrosting the car. And he thought when we got rid of my jeep that he wouldn't have to scrape the inside and outside of the windows anymore, boy was he wrong! lol
We don't have an advent calendar but I think at the end of this year I will be looking for one for next year.
We got the Playmobil advent calendar for G this year (you open a door each day to reveal a new piece to add on to the scene). We're doing Elf on the Shelf, but not an activity a day...too much for me to handle right now.
We are using the Starbucks advent calendar. Never done one before, but it was the hyped product of last christmas at work, so I figured I'd give it a shot. Chocolate every day!
To be fair an activity a day in our family can be big, like visiting Santa or simple, like have hot chocolate with a candy cane or read a Christmas/winter book
I want to do an advent calendar, but I think E is too little. There is a really pretty silver tree one at Target. I like the idea of a mix of candy, small toys, and activities.
