Now that Thanksgiving and birthdays are over, its time to start getting into the Christmas Spirit! Even with all the craziness, I am suprisingly still excited for this time of the year! Every year my kids do what we call the 25 days of Christmas. We have an activity for each day planned out which all lead up to the big day! I will post every day what our Day was and also post what the next days activity is so if you want, you can participate with your own family! I highly encourage you do to so! Its so much fun! If you do, post about it too! December 1st is just around the corner so here is the activity so you can get a jump start!
1st day of Christmas: Find the Christmas Elf and talk about it with your kids.
Every year a "Christmas Elf" comes to live in our home for the month of December. Every day the elf "watches" the kids to make sure they are being good, and every night the elf flys back to the North Pole to tell Santa if they are naughty or nice! It really helps my kids behave for that last month! Dont forget to move your elf every night so the kids think the elf has come and gone! I tell my kids that they can talk to the elf and tell him/her what they want for Christmas, but they cant touch the elf. Let your kids name their elf!
I look forward to seeing anyone who wishes to join us in the 25 days of Christmas!
