Do you feel Christmas has become a whirl of shopping and chores that have to be completed by the 25th? Look at these 25 Activities for Kids to Spread Holiday Cheer as a sort of refreshing activity Advent countdown starting on the 1st of December. The kids will look forward to choosing an activity each day to celebrate the spirit of the season. Bring the merry back in Christmas.

Trivia:

Advent is the period of four Sundays and weeks before Christmas (or sometimes from the 1st of December to Christmas Day!). Advent means ‘Coming’ in Latin. This is the coming of Jesus into the world. Christians use the four Sundays and weeks of Advent to prepare and remember the real meaning of Christmas. The Tradition of Advent from WhyChristmas?.com

Instructions

Print and cut out the 25 advent activity cards and put them on the refrigerator with magnets or maybe in a fishbowl.

Each day let a child select an activity. Or maybe you want to select the activity that fits into the day’s schedule  and surprise the children when they wake in the morning. They will go to bed excited to see what Christmas cheer they will be sharing the next day.

There are no hard and fast rules for this Advent activity. Whatever you and your children do to make the world merry this holiday season will create fond memories that they will relive year after year.
