Free Printable for a Countdown to Christmas Fun!
Are your kids counting down the days until Christmas? I’ve got a super fun and engaging way to help them mark the days – introducing our FREE Printable Santa Advent Calendar! This isn't just any advent calendar—your kids get to build Santa's beard using cotton pads! How cute is that? 🎅✨
How It Works
This Santa advent calendar is perfect for adding some excitement to the Christmas countdown. Here’s how it works:
Print out the calendar (instant download).
Each day from December 1st to 25th, your child will glue a cotton pad on one of the numbers on Santa’s beard.
By the time Christmas Eve rolls around, Santa’s beard will be fully fluffed and ready for the big day! 🎄
This activity combines fun with a great fine motor skills workout for little hands, giving your kids a sense of accomplishment each day as they see Santa's beard fill up. Plus, it adds a touch of magic to the festive season! ✨
Print it in Style!
For best results, it’s preferable to print this Santa advent calendar on cardstock paper. This makes it sturdier for the daily fun and ensures it lasts throughout the whole month of December. The calendar can be printed three sizes: A4, 8.5x11 inches and 11x17 inches, so you can choose the one that fits your needs perfectly! 📏
