K, so we're already at the 9th of December (and still no baby!), but it's not too late to make this countdown chain with the entire family. You could even make it a shorter countdown, such as "days until we go to see Santa" or "days until we drive to Grandma's house."
The twist on this countdown is that you write on each chain what your toddler (and other members of the family) can do to help others this Christmas.
These were a few of my favorite words my toddler came up with (with some help):
If you have a preschooler, it is great practice for them to write simple words with your help. If you're doing this with a toddler, you can have them help you tape the chains together or let them draw pictures on the strips. You can also use stickers or other decorations.

This one says, "4 love." I think she just wrote a 4 instead of an "L" at first.
Let your toddler hang their chain in their room or wherever they'll remember to take one off each day until your "goal" is reached!
