Advent Countdown, week 1!

We have been doing an advent countdown and activity each night in December. It's been really fun so far!

Day 1 - We made cinnamon applesauce ornaments for our tree. This one was a lot of fun! 





Day 2 - Emmett decorated a felt tree. He most just wanted to run away with the pieces. 



Day 3 - We made a marshmallow snowman by gluing marshmallows to paper. Emmett preferred squishing and throwing marshmallows. :)


Day 4 - Emmett got to play in a winter themed sensory bin. He really liked this one! We used packing peanuts as "snow" and threw in some other winter/Christmas themed odds and ends.




Day 5 - We decorated a cardboard tree with stickers. Emmett was so, so on this one and I didn't get any pictures.

Day 6 - Fake snow! We made fake snow out of shaving cream and baking soda. I think this one was Emmett's favorite so far! He had a blast and climbed right in the box because he loved it so much. 





Day 7 - Emmett turned 2 years old and had a big birthday party today, and we were all pretty tired this evening. We snuggled on the couch and watched a Christmas movie together rather than doing an activity. Looking forward to the next week of our countdown! :)
