Christmas Books Countdown

By | 10 Comments

I had high hopes for creating an advent calendar this year. Yeah, that didn’t happen. When I saw this idea popping up on a few blogs, I knew this was the project for me (probably because it was the easiest for me to do).
I taught preschool for about six years, and my favorite thing to splurge on was books for my classroom. I realized I have about 200 books, 40 of which are Christmas books, that I had collected over those six years! I always knew that my kids would get good use of these books one day.
When I saw this idea for a Christmas countdown, a lightbulb came on and I pulled out all my Christmas books, wrapped 24 of them, stuck them in a box and under the tree. What little one doesn’t enjoy opening presents? It’s a great way to countdown to Christmas, and to share some of the Christmas story and classic Christmas tales every night.
Starting tonight, it will become part of our regular evening routine for the next 24 days.
How do you countdown to Christmas?
We’re off to Disneyland tonight to visit Santa and his reindeer, watch the Christmas Fantasy parade and see snow!
