December is here and that means the Countdown to Christmas has begun! Here is a fun way that I found to count down the days and add some fun trivia. Create your own DIY Countdown to Christmas Calendar with hidden trivia!
Supplies:
- Printer
- Xacto Knife
- Ink
- Ruler
- Paper / Card Stock
- Countdown Calendar (link goes to a printable)
- Make a Countdown Trivia to go behind your calendar. You will want to make this fun and unique to your family. Here is some Christmas Trivia inspiration via Parade.com.
Print out the DIY Countdown to Christmas Calendar or make your own. Print on card stock using a quality printer like the HP ENVY. Be creative and use color!
Use the ruler and Xacto Knife to make small cuts on 3 sides of each number leaving enough on the fourth side so that it will open and close.
Print out the trivia or make your own. I did it in black and white.
Cut it down to size so that the trivia is lined up with the numbers on the calendar.
Use tape or glue to attach the trivia to another piece of card stock. Line up the card stock so that it is even with the calendar.
Glue or tape the calendar to the second card stock with the trivia attached.
Be creative! Add a ribbon to the top to hang it on the wall. Add it to the tree. Add some other fun decorations you would like to make it personal.
Hang it up and enjoy trivia with your kids each day!
