I was browsing through some old The Friend magazines today to get some good ideas for FHE tonight and came across a cute advent calendar for scripture reading this month. I couldn't find the original to share with you (it's too old), but I found one similar for you if you'd like to try it with your family this month. I think we will to help spice up our scripture study and really have the focus on the Savior. Plus, it will be fun to let the kids take turns each night opening the windows.
- Here's an advent board.
- Here are the stars to read each night. We're a little behind, since today is the 3rd.
- Here's a fun one for adults - a daily Christmas devotional w/ a scripture and a song to sing!

Great idea! Growing up we had an old coke bottle crate (24 small boxes when tipped on its side) that we would add a small figure/ornament to each day. Because us girls took a turn in order, we each tried to figure it right so that we were one who could put in the special Christmas eve one. I am still hoping Matt gets a similar box finished in time for us to start using this year. It is almost done, and would make a great way to show Meg just how much longer until Christmas is really here. Traditions are great!
I used to have that same bear calendar and adore it. Want to get one for my future kids- would have loved to have passed down the same one, but my mother got rid of it.
That's actually how I ended up on your blog, searching for it.
