DIY Advent Calendars Part I

November 29, 2010


I am kind of crazy about Advent Calendars. I am in the middle of making one for my little fam as a surprise on the feat os St. Nicholas this weekend. Shh! Don’t tell! Advent calendars a great way to build anticipation and excitement for Christmas (not that you need much help)! 

The word advent means “coming”….my family always used advent calenders as a time to gather around and reflect about who was coming– the Savior – the infant King! As a child this helped make Christ’s birth more meaningful…and hence practice the true meaning of Christmas.

Do you have any Advent Calendar Traditions??
