Last year I found this cute door-hanging advent calendar for the girls for Christmas. I loved the idea of creating one for them that wasn’t all full of candy (not that a bit isn’t good).

I filled it with some pay it forward tasks, family fun ideas, bows and other little goodies.

This year, I have seen tonnes of these DIY advent calendars around and decided I would share my list of ideas with free printables of exactly what I used to make it SUPER simple.

You can also use the list below and make your own if you wish.
