I just hung the advent calendar!
There is a clip on the backside of each of the tiny numbered felt booties. I want to clip a short message or story about Christmas to each one. I thought it would be nice to sit in the living room every evening, and read about Santa, the birth of Jesus, where stockings came from, why we give gifts and other interesting facts about the holiday. My three year old LOVES stories...
Anyways, I now have to research 25 things about Christmas, print them, and stick them up...before Dec 1. No pressure!
UPDATE: I decided to write a short story every day...and 'upload' it to the calendar as we go...so that on Dec 24, all the clips will be full!
ps. I got this idea from the Caillou Christmas cartoon.
pps. I will circle back next week if I am able to pull this off! Let me know if you have any good ideas/website links that might help!
