Christmas Countdown



I saw this idea on another blog, but it was MUCH fancier. I tailored it to work with our supplies, available time, and attention spans so we could celebrate the excitement of the season every day from 12/1 through 12/25. Mateo counted out the envelopes and printed them with a dot marker and I added the numbers after they had dried. Then we counted them again and hung them along the railing. Every morning Mateo checks the envelope of the day to see what special activity is in store! We kicked it off on 12/1 with Story Hour at the SCF library followed by a trip to the store to buy something for the Giving Tree at Mateo's school.
