Advent Books for Christmas Countdown 2020 Edition

Happy first day of December! I know by now that you've heard about the Advent Books.  This scheme is similar to Advent Calendar, but instead, you prepare 25 Christmas books to read each day till Christmas.  Some people wrap the books up and open a random book each day, others simply put a bow on the books and schedule ahead which book to read (I like this one better!)

Advent at Home

How do you observe Advent?  We are doing Jesse Tree (more on this later) and Advent candles at home.  Each Sunday of Advent, the boys and I would light up a candle in our Nativity.  These are beeswax candles that Vito made and used it together with our candle stand from Grimm’s.  He totally enjoys this simple tradition!

It was a superb idea! I love it because it’s simple and needs less time of preparation. 

                             

My son and I loves working this project together!
