This is our advent calendar. On the back are scriptures that pertain to the Lord's birthday, or to the Lord himself.
Some years while growing up we got a chocolate advent calendar. I loved getting my chocolate for the night. With that thought in mind, I wanted to create our own advent calendar.
We are trying to focus our Christmas on Christ. Because Cedrik is only 3, Freddie 2, I'll probably add a few service ideas to the back of some of the cards that are easy for us to do.
Hopefully over the years the kids will come to realize Christmas is much more than gifts. It's about giving gifts and not just material ones. And, it's about family- so maybe I'll add a few fun family activities we can do too.
