Dec 12, 2008 08:36 PM

Sure, you can buy one, but making an Advent calendar is a nice family project—and you can use better treats!

You will need:

a large piece of cardboard or poster board

24 small containers such as cardboard boxes and envelopes

art supplies to decorate your calender (markers, paints, stickers)

a glue gun

24 small treats, like candy or toys

Tip: Cut the cardboard into a holiday shape, such as a Christmas tree, wreath or snowman. Make sure the containers are attached in a way that makes them easy to open.
