Christmas Advent Activities

Can you believe that there is twenty-five days until Christmas? This is my absolute favorite time of the year.  Every year we do at least one Christmas related activity per day until the big day. Here is a list of activities that we will be doing this Christmas season:
  1. Curl up in bed and watch a Christmas movie
  2. Decorate the house for Christmas
  3.  Pick out a Christmas tree
  4. Decorate a Christmas tree
  5. Wear Christmas socks
  6. Take a late night drive to enjoy the Christmas lights
  7. Drink homemade hot chocolate
  8. Make gingerbread cookies with cousins
  9. See a lighted boat parade
  10. Go to a special holiday event in our town 
  11. Bake lots of cookies
  12. Eat reindeer sandwiches
  13. Eat a candy cane or two
  14. Have a Christmas music dance party
  15. Go to a festival of lights 
  16. Make and deliver cookies to our neighbors
  17. Make ornaments 
  18. See Santa 
  19. Dress up in a Santa hat and take pictures!
  20. Play in a Christmas themed sensory bin
  21. Read Christmas stories 
  22. Make a Christmas hand print wreath
  23. Paint with Christmas cookie cutters
  24. Make Christmas themed sun catchers
  25. Have a special Christmas eve party at grandparent's house
Do you plan these types of list? I would love to see them!

    What are reindeer sandwiches?
    This is the first year I've done a list like this. We have a lot of similar ideas!
