Christmas Activities Advent Calendar

This is my activities advent calendar for 2012. I have a different activity for each day of December right up until Christmas Day.

The activities include
- Wrapping Mindee's books for reading each night
- Make a Christmas scent on the stove
- Wrap presents
- Christmas crafts
- Paint Christmas nails
- Take Mindee's Christmas photo's
- Christmas carols night
- Go looking at Christmas lights
- Christmas baking
- Make Gingerbread house
- Make Limoncello
- Go to Christmas concert at church
- Candle lit dinner
- Watch Christmas movies
- Late night Christmas shopping
- Opening a present Christmas Eve
- CHRISTMAS

You could be creative and put any activity in it that you want to achieve during the month of December. I have done a lot more this Christmas already then any other Christmas. It is a fun way to be productive during the busy month of December. 









If you want to make this calendar for yourself all you will need is
- 2 Sheets of cardboard 
- Wrapping Paper (I used the same paper that I wrapped my presents in)
- Decorating string
- Pen
- Glue

Cut the wrapping paper into rectangles and glue them on both sides and the bottom, leave the top unglued so it creates a pocket.
Glue the 25 pockets onto a cardboard sheet positioned how you like.
Cut up the other sheet of cardboard to create inserts that fit into the pockets.
Write the activities and numbers on the inserts and slide them into the pockets.
Decorate.

Hopefully it helps you get productive and organised for Christmas too :)
