Family Connection

Free downloadable, printable advent calendar of family fun!

Christmas is supposed to be the time we connect most with our families, yet it’s often the time of year that we feel most fraught, with the least disposable time.

I designed this Advent Calendar to help to bring the family together in simple, shared activities in the lead up to Christmas. This way, connection is spread out over the whole month instead of trying to shoehorn it all into that one hectic day when, let’s face it, we’ll most likely be running round like headless chickens, with the kids on a frenzied sugar rush from scoffing an entire chocolate selection box for breakfast.

Within this pdf are 24 daily prompts, each containing a family activity that takes minimal time & resources (most can be done in 5-10 mins), but that will create precious daily moments of connection between you and your family. You can do them in any order you like, depending on what suits you best and fits in most comfortably with your existing arrangements. Keep them digitally, or print them out, whichever you prefer.

If you print them out you could:

⭐️ Keep the whole sheets on the wall and cross ones off as you do them

⭐️ Cut them out into 24 separate slips and tuck them into an advent calendar

⭐️ Cut them out into 24 separate slips, pop them all in a jar and pick one at random each day

 I really hope you enjoy them!
