Christmas Advent Ideas

This post may contain affiliate links.

There are SO many fun ways to celebrate Christmas. One thing we love doing is a Christmas Advent countdown. I have a little advent calendar with doors to open each day of December through Christmas.   I usually try to make it more meaningful, by adding in  little activities and scriptures to go along with each day.

I have found some fun ideas out there. It is truly inspiring how many amazing crafters there are!   I want to share some of these fabulous ideas, so that you can be inspired, too.

Christmas Picture Books

We do a Christmas book a day through the month of December in our home. See my post about it HERE.

We love the Star from Afar book & Nativity set. Each day you move the star around and your kids find the star and move the wisemen to that location. ON the final day the star ends up at the nativity above Jesus.
