Even before Thanksgiving, my daughter has asked 到十二月二十五日要多久？(Dào shí’èr yuè èrshíwǔ rì yào duōjiǔ? How long until December 25?). For advent, we made this Paper Chain Snowman Family Christmas countdown! I have created a printable template for the paper chains to minimize prep time. If you’d like, you can add hats to these cute snowmen! However, we did not since my daughter said it’s too hot in sunny California for winter hats! 🙂
