1. Advent Calendar Packs* - I bought these to review earlier in the year and they look really good. There is an A3 advent calendar, which contains a picture and bible verse. Each day corresponds with a daily reading/activity in a little booklet which is provided. There are three versions:
- Countdown to the Coming of the King
- The Real Christmas Tree
- Christmas Opened Up
2.
Beginning with God at Christmas - I have been doing Beginning with God Book 1 with my 3-year old and we love it. If an advent calendar full of bible readings etc is too old your kids - this could be a winner.3. XTB: Christmas Unpacked - An activity
book for 7-10 year olds in the lead up to Christmas.*I have one of each Advent Calendar Pack to giveaway. So if it's all too hard this year, and you'd like some help - email me and go in the draw for me for me to post you a pack (with your address and if you have a preference for which of the three). In order for it to arrive by Wednesday 1st (hopefully!) - it's limited to Australian readers. Entries close noon Monday 29th.
My only request is that you let me know how it went, so I can review it properly for next year!!
Update - all packs have been won - congrats to Christine, Jenny and Emily.
My references to the Good Book Company in this post are all to the Australian store - but they also have a UK and US store.
Thanks for this post Wendy. The idea of making something myself is too hard at the moment (as much I would love to do it). Buying all the presents plus all the end of year events etc etc makes it really busy for me. These ideas make doing something during advent feel possible.
