I love the holidays! As soon as December hits, I’m ready to have all kinds of fun activities with my kids. I’m sort of an advent hoarder. This year we have 4 going to keep the kids busy, and everyone happy. I’ve compiled 25 fun advent activities you can include in your countdown to Christmas.
December is the one month a year that we seem to make a celebration out of every day. Whether it’s staying home watching movies, or getting out and serving others – every day holds an adventure. Having a quick snack on hand is key to moving from school and homework into each days activity. For our activities outside the house, we like Entenmann’s® Little Bites® paired with some chocolate milk.
Turning chocolate milk boxes into a Santa was so simple too! Just wrap each box with red and black construction paper and secure with tape. The kids get so excited when these come out. They know we’re about to head out for our daily advent activity.

Gingerbread flavors are loved by five states, with traditional treats like gingerbread men and gingerbread cake. Traditional Christmas dinner features turkey with stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, and vegetables such as carrots, turnip, parsnips, etc. Other types of poultry, roast beef, or ham are also used.

Hi, Christina. I’ve never tried it with the plastic ones but I think the ingredients would slide around just fine. If you try it send me a message or leave a comment and let me know if it works. Thanks! Renewable Energy Investing
Thanks, Jill! I like it better than the blank wall, too. 🙂 Love your Etsy shop (cute zinc stencils you have!) and am so jealous that you get to travel and shop at such amazing places! I’ll keep an eye on the items you have as I’m always on the hunt for “new” vintage treasures.Female Personal Trainer
I’m crazy about the initial on velvet! They look super sweet hanging on those hooks. Wow, those turned out great. I would have never thought to make ornaments out of embroidery hoops. So simple and so cute. Thanks for the idea SSD Cheap Web Hosting
Beads, bracelets, necklaces, pendants, and many other ornaments are familiar objects that play a fundamental role in personal expression and communication. Ornament is decoration or embellishment. It is any additional detail added to an object, interior or architectural structure.Cape Verde Accommodation Hotel
