So far i have

Started the advent calendar - kids have paint printed today with christmas cutters in red and green and have cut them into 24 strips, will write on each one a christmasy thing to do and then paper chain them and attach to a star with this poem on:
December 1st until Christmas
Is the longest time of the year.
It seems as though old Santa
Never will appear.
How many days until Christmas?
It's mighty hard to count.
So this little chain of links
Will tell you the amount.

Laminated christmas playdough mats - baubles on the treee, mince pies on the plate and buttons on the snowman

Printed out snowmen with numbers on 1-5 to do a number line

Made and laminated christmas placemats - cut out old christmas cards and children glued them and any christmas sequins, shapes, glitter and wrote their name on to use for snack and meal times

Started green handprints to make our christmas tree

Trying to make a christmas snug/den but not quite got their yet

Think thats it so far :)

I like the link idea!
So far all i have got round to doing is my templates for a snowman advent calendar based on the idea of santa's beard one that i do every year, as they say a change is as good as a rest!;) I will be getting more into it next week!
