Simple Advent Calendars

Are you looking for a simple way to make your own Advent calendars? Here are some easy ideas:

  • Print out your own Advent calendar template and let the kids color or decorate it for themselves. This template is one that I made based on a Christmas card we received several years ago. As you open each window, you read another segment of the Christmas story.

  • Make an Advent chain. Staple together strips of green and red construction paper to make a chain. If you want, you can write Bible verses on each link, or perhaps a simple idea for serving someone else during Advent. (For example, “Set the table.” “Make your sister’s bed today.”)

  • Make a chocolate Advent calendar using Hershey kisses!
