Christmas Countdown:Day 3, 26 days left

Okay! So today I present to you a SUPER cute idea with inspiration from http://thecraftpatch.blogspot.com/. It starts with a picture:Each 12 days of Christmas there is a treat that go along with a story...Below is the link to the story along with the candy number the story goes along with:
Day 1:A Christmas Family(red envelope filled with chocolate coins)
Day 2:Rudolph--that amazing reindeer(reindeer marshmallows)
Day 3:An older brother's gift(candy book)
Day 4:The other wise man(candy ring"jewels")Btw-the website for the story doesn't work:-(
Day 5:Christmas day in the morning(cow tales)
Day 6: In Shepherd's Field (pooping sheep)
Day 7:
The Christmas Orange (chocolate orange)
Day 8:
A Christmas Gift For Jesus (chocolate dollars)
Day 9:
Why Christmas Trees Aren't Perfect (Peep Christmas trees)
Day 10:
Christmas On The Rhine (gingerbread men)
Day 11:
A Brother Like That (race car candies)

And then wrap the candy up individually, print off and roll up the story for that day and attach a tag that says what day the "present" is supposed to be opened. Like this:
A neat touch to the craft would be to include a poem:


We thought this present would be good
to get you in the Christmas mood.
Each day there's a story,
they're all really neat.
Along with each story
comes a special treat.
Open each package one by one
We hope it brings lots of Christmas fun!


Guess what?! Tomorrow's December 1st!!! Happy December everyone;-)

  1. Hi there. I am glad you like my Twelve Days of Christmas, but I would prefer that you asked permission before using content from my blog, especially since you basically copied and pasted things straight from the original post.

    Thanks!
