25 Days of Christmas Activities

Thursday, November 28, 2013

Christmas is my favorite time of year. I love traditions and adding at least one new tradition every year.   A few years ago we started the 25 days of Christmas activity countdown. It's a little more work here because 1.It is still 90-100 degrees everyday and 2. We live in a country that doesn't celebrate Christmas. (Although, you will see quite a few Christmas trees up.) The boys and I love doing our crafts and activities everyday. December 1st kicks off our activity calendar and I can hardly wait.  So, here is our list of what we will be up to during our 25 Days of Christmas.

1. Start new Lego Advent Calendar ( The boys don't know they are getting a new one this year!)
2.No fireplaces in Thailand, so we are making a Flameless Firepit
3.Stick Ornaments
4. Snowmen handprint on Canvas
5. Hopefully making balloon snowmen if I can find white balloons.  Love this one!
6. Watch Polar Express with Hot Chocolate
7. Go see Frozen
8. Have a Snowman breakfast
9. Make Snowball Soup for friends
10. Make paper ornaments from Hobby Lobby Packet (I was thinking ahead when we were back in the States this summer!)
11. Write letter to Santa
12. Make Popsicle Stick snowflakes
13. Paint snowman ornament from Hobby Lobby
14. Go ice skating
15. Make gingerbread house
16. Make snow playdoh
17. Make cinnamon ornaments
18. Make reindeer food 
19. Make Grinch cookies and watch The Grinch
20. Go see Christmas lights at the mall, pick out gifts for brothers, hot chocolate at Starbucks
21. Wrap brothers gifts
22. Make cut out cookies
23. Camp out by "fire" and Christmas tree
24. Read Twas the Night Before Christmas, put out reindeer food and cookies for Santa
25. Christmas movies & Brunch

I cannot wait.  It really is the most wonderful time of the year!  Do any of you do a Advent calendar or activity countdown?  I would love to hear about them!
