A Christian Advent calendar

Advent Why are there 5 candles on an advent ring?

How to make an Advent calendar Get into pairs One partner uses one piece of paper for the front cover of the calendar the other has one for the back (the pictures inside)

Front Cover Turn your page over so that the page is blank. Draw a Christmas scene on the front to do with how Christians celebrate Christmas. When that is complete you can cut 3 sides of the boxes out so that it can open as a window.

Back Cover The boxes need to have symbols or pictures from the story You are not allowed to use any of the following: Santa Reindeer Snowman Christmas tree Presents Robin Snowflakes etc.

Back cover When the pictures are finished they can be cut out and glued on the back of the front cover. An additional piece of paper can then cover the back.

All Together On the front, number the windows at random apart from 25 which should be the largest one. Well done!
