I'm doing the "Twelve Days of Christmas" for the boys, doing an activity every day to help the looooong days before Christmas pass. Each morning they find a new package beholding the day's activites.
The first day we wrote letters to Santa.
I don't have any pictures of them, but Cameron's went something like this,
"I want a toy gun, so you can mark off that blue race car I wanted."
Blake's went something like this,
"I want a Batman walkie talkie, make that two, so Cameron can play, too"
On the second day of Christmas, we played outside in the snow-
snowballs were flying, and we made a laying down snowman
On the third day we went to Grandma's and made suncatcher ornaments
On the fourth day of Christmas we worked with some Christmas trees
On the Fifth day of Christmas we made cookies!
On the sixth day we painted Nativities
Today was the 7th day and we gave to others. We gathered our old coats, gloves, hats, etc. and donated them towards a homeless shelter, then we made treats to give the neighbors.
