Advent calendars help us not only keep track of the passing days but maintain our focus on the joyous day that is Christmas.
We usually do the cheap ones with chocolate for the kids. Really, it is just part of the traditions that we have with our kids.
This year my husband made special advent calendars for me and the kids. He hand-made them with cardboard and wrapping paper, and customized them to each of us.

My youngest has three new dinosaurs

My middle kid has three new D&D characters

I have three new mini Stitches
It has been a nice addition to a crazy time in our lives. Something to look forward to in our long days.
So, curious minds want to know. Do you do advent calendars? For yourself, or for your children?
