There are a few we read this year that I think with be stretching it if I included them next year ;) <br />I think the book choices each year are what makes it such a special tradition. Some books will stay the same every year but as the years pass there will be new, more complex titles stepping in :) <br />Hope that your kiddies enjoy the twelve books!

Might have to start hunting and do this one next year:) (I'm not bit on the chocolate advent calendar either). <br /><br />Another tradition we did a few years ago was do a twelve days of Christmas and bought or made 12 small gifts and phantom'ed them to friends doorsteps each night leading up to Christmas... (With a written line of the song- changed up a little to match the gifts) it was SO much fun- a bit of effort but so worth it. They never found out who it was, but were talking about it for ages:D Fionahttp://www.fionasthings.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4908208985957738476.post-55486657299957860552012-12-17T00:00:14.306+11:002012-12-17T00:00:14.306+11:00What a great idea.
