This year our family is working on strengthening our relationships with each other, and with God and our
church. Having historically been what I would describe as more "spiritual" than religious in the past, I am learning a long with my kids, the story of the Bible and the birth of Jesus.
We have decided to celebrate Advent this year DIY style :)
It cost only 99 cents for the bags. Much cheaper than the traditional cardboard or chocolate laden advent calendars from the store.
|
I modified this idea from something I saw on Pinterest. |
|
I filled each bag with a line from, essentially, the Nativity story. Although also modified, for my 2 and 5 year olds ;) |
|
of course we also added some treats! |
|
they got prepped and HUNG today over ribbon with clothespins! |
What are some different things, DIY or otherwise, you're trying this year??
