40+ Christmas Countdown Activities

I LOVE Advent calendars and Christmas countdown activities of all kinds. When my kids were little, we always had an Advent calendar and read Christmas books each day leading up to Christmas.

I’m awed by all the amazing Christmas countdown activities available online! Today, I want to share 40+ ideas from around the blogosphere. But don’t miss my previous posts, which contain LOTS Of Christmas countdown activities and other December family activities. The links are still good. I won’t be repeating activities in this post, so be sure to check out my previous posts as well:
