Do you know what this means to many North American children? It is the first day to begin the annual Christmas count down on your advent calendar!! What is an advent calendar you ask? It is a special calendar which is used to count or celebrate the days of Advent in anticipation of Christmas. Most commonly they are large rectangular and thin cardboard boxes with many ''windows''. One window is opened everyday during Advent to reveal an image, a poem, a part of a story or a small gift such as a toy or chocoloate! The number of doors can also increase to cover Christmas Day to New Year's Day.
