Christmas and Snowy’s Advent Calendar 2013 – Dec 1st to 8th

Our two new friends have arrived with our Advent crown and their first book choice for our Advent Calendar 2013 🙂

My daughter has christened them Christmas and Snowy, they’ve barely left her side all day and have been a huge hit so I think we’re in for a fun Advent! Let’s see what they got up to from Dec 1st to 8th.

December 1st

Rica und ihre Freunde feiern Weihnachten – a story for Advent with a window sticker for each day. By Christmas we will have a Nativity scene on our window.

December 2nd

Christmas and Snowy brought their guitar and their drum so that they could play along with My Very First Christmas Carols.

December 3rd

We found Christmas and Snowy writing their Christmas cards. They must have been inspired by bringing The Jolly Christmas Postman.

December 4th

Christmas and Snowy found the cheese so that they can celebrate Cheesemas but did they find The Great Big Cheesy Diamond when they read Mouseton Abbey?

December 5th

Christmas and Snowy had four princesses to play with when we found them this morning and they had also brought a new Rescue Princess book – The Magic Rings.

December 6th – Nikolaus Tag

Christmas and Snowy went to the library to choose our next book, Lieber Nikolaus wann kommst du?. Nikolaus also filled their shoes with sweeties 🙂

December 7th

Christmas and Snowy brought Molli der Schneeman for us to read today. They also had time to build a snowman and have a snowball fight!

December 8th

The Night Pirates was Christmas and Snowy’s choice of book today. They were also accompanied by a rather mean looking pirate who doesn’t want to share his treasure!

      I’m like your husband, my mind is constantly thinking up the next idea. I’m not sure who is having more fun, me or my daughter 🙂

    What a lovely idea! Can’t wait to see what other books your little friends will come up with!

      There are so many lovely books for them to choose that they will probably need to stay longer than Advent ;)!
