Grateful Advent Countdown Chain

With a few last days of November lingering (and before the holiday rush really starts) take the time to help your child make a colorful + thankful Christmas advent countdown. 

You can use any colorful paper that you have. These papers are in fall colors, but you could use Christmas colors instead.

On a different strip of paper for each item, list 25 things your child is thankful for.

Glue or staple the strips to make a chain to count down until Christmas. Remove one chain piece per day as a reminder of everything you’re thankful for.
