At the beginning of December I mentioned that it’s really easy to make a green advent calendar. Well, that was with the help of my new reviewer Summer. It’s been quite a lot of fun working with Zoe and Miles on the Advent Calendar. They are learning their numbers, counting, and number recognition. I’ve been really impressed with Zoe and Miles and all of the progress they have made. But not only that’s it’s been so much fun counting down to Christmas.

The kids are SO EXCITED about Christmas this year!

Every day, Miles says, “Can I do my animal cracker!” But he’s really saying Can I do my advent calendar today. So we’ve been doing the animal cracker every day. Playmobil sent us one of the advent calendars and Zoe has been enjoying it even more than the candy I put in the green advent calendar. Then each kid takes a turn.

Miles does the green advent calendar and Zoe does the Playmobil advent calendar. The Playmobil advent calendar is the Santa Playmobil advent calendar. I would rather the kids have the nativity scene but this one has been fun too. Zoe is learning about different animals but more important than that she’s been learning how to share with Miles. Watching Miles and Zoe playing together and learning about feeding animals and just great cooperation has been wonderful. I love my kids and how well they share together.

The Countdown to Christmas is so exciting. We have five days left!!
