Print This Craft

Kids love to count down the days until Christmas. Our Printable Santa Advent Calendar gives them the perfect project to make that count down to the special day lots of fun. Santa’s beard grows fuller every day until the final ball of cotton makes it complete.

Trivia:

An advent calendar is a card or poster with twenty-four days, one to be observed each day from December 1 until Christmas Eve. In the beginning each day was represented by a small door that concealed a biblical picture that was revealed when opened. This popular tradition began in Germany in the late 1800s and soon spread throughout Europe and North America. Source: Infoplease – Advent: Dates, Traditions, and History
