Christmas Countdown

Megan has been asking me about everyday when Christmas is. The solution was to make a countdown chain.

Each night at bedtime Megan cuts off the lowest link. When Christmas arrives all that will be left is the star at the top.


Luke 2:11 is written on the star. After we read The Story of Christmas by Patricia A. Pingry we then read the scripture. This is working so well that I plan to make it an annual tradition.

  3. Wendi,

    We've used this idea in the past and added things to do the the links like watch a Christmas movie, make a Christmas craft, bake cookies to make the anticipation even more fun!
