Today is December 1st, which marks the start of our Advent Season. Every year, we try and do something fun for The Girls, as well as something that helps us to take a moment, in this busy season, to remember who, and what, we actually are celebrating.
This year, we chose the Schleich Farm Advent Calendar for the Girls to open every day, and let me tell you, they were pretty darn excited! Our Girls have been long time lovers of Schleich, and will spend hours upon hours in the basement, setting up elaborate ranches and farms, and then playing them out for days. It's so great!
The other special Advent thing we are doing this year is thanks to my Mom, who sent this beautiful book to us, and we received it last week (Thanks, Mom!). I'm excited to unpack this book over the next several weeks. I haven't downloaded the ornaments that can go with it, but it provides some great, practical things you can talk about and do, together as a family.
So there you have it....The Countdown to Christmas has begun. Happy December, everyone!
