Here is a good idea that I heard is to use your children's Halloween candy to put in a candy advent calendar! Brilliant! The one that I am starting this year is to unwrap and read a Christmas book or story each night. It was tradition in my family growing up to unwrap and read a new Christmas book on Christmas Eve followed by the Christmas Story from the Bible so, I am taking the books that my mom has given me over the years to use as a countdown to Christmas by unwrapping and reading one each night before Christmas.
