Advent calenders to print? Craft printables to help us make one? I really cannot perform fruitful searches... sigh.... Thanks!
Here's a Christmas tree: http://www.atozteacherstuff.com/pages/4723.shtml and a Santa: http://www.atozteacherstuff.com/pages/4722.shtml
I found one on my computer! Yea, I am that dense! (Stop giggling, Deena! haha!) Regardeless, you are gonna love this! I have no clue where I got this, but I did NOT make this. It is someone elses art.... INSIDE of Calendar OUTSIDE of Calendar enjoy!
Jen---would I laugh at you, EVER??!! :lol: I actually think you have some brilliant ideas! I like you too much to laugh at you! :love: Okay, enough mushy stuff! How do you use these calendars? I know it's a daily thing, and they lift up a flap and see the picture underneath? But what do you do /say surrounding the lifting of the flaps?
I'm sure there are many ways that people use these. For us, given that our critters are still too young to grasp the concept of "How loooong until Christmas?"... it helps them answer the question themselves. Plus all the other things of counting, order of numbers and stuff like that. Now, if you look on the outside sheet, each "Door" has four sides. One of the sides is dotted. You slice or cut open all the sides except he dotted one. This creating a door. We would open one each day until christmas, of course. Some people do the numbers as a countdown, and some people mark off the days in order 1-25. SO it is up to you, I s'pose. ((HUGS))
Jen that calendar is like the one I had as a kid.. it was cardstock(tagboard). I loved that thing! We never did anything special with it, I jus tloved to see the surprise pics.
Yea, me too! :lol: I remembered them, but could not remember everything about them. And even using google I am a klutz when it comes to searching. I always put in just the wrong terms and find everything in the world except that one thing I am looking for. KWIM? Makes me crazy! haha But, thankfully, I have you gals to help me out of the dark.
