This is what I've been up to today: an advent
calendar paper chain. On the back of each paper chain link there is a
Christmas activity for us to do like baking sugar cookies, watching a
Christmas movie, or making homemade ornaments. I got the printable sign from The Tom Kat Studio and the printable paper chain links from The Paper Mama. Both printables are free!
