Advent countdown

We made an Advent chain with the boys tonight.  I cut strips of purple and pink construction paper and had the kids help staple the ends together to create a chain.  Then they decorated the paper rings with stickers.  I don’t know if they totally understand the concept of counting down to Christmas, but I know they enjoyed creating the chain itself.  They also really had fun running back and forth under the rings after Jake hung the chain from the ceiling in the porch.
