Easy DIY count Down to Christmas

It's almost Christmas time. Do you have kids? Do they like to count the days  till Christmas?  Make a simple countdown to Christmas with them. It is so simple they could probably do it themselves really.


First start with about 4 pieces of paper (you can get more if you need).  Fold the paper into a fan,cut two inches Wide Strips. get as many strips out of one piece of paper as you can.


Use a glue stick and glue 2 of the squares together. Make sure it will unfold properly before you glue it. because if you don't it will be unfolding back word.




make enough squars and glue them together so you have 25 squares. Now number them 1-25 on the folded paper .   Punch a hole and put a string through it. Now you have a simple countdown to Christmas calendar. Cut off 1 square day each day so you and your child can keep track of how many days till Christmas or left. Have fun!

OPTIONAL: You can put tape at the top before you punch the hole so the string will not pull though.
