If you have the advent calendars from PBK...

what do you put in them for each day?

I've been wanting a PBK advent calendar and was about to buy one online when it hit me that I have no idea what to put in them for each day. What do others do?

The Trader Joe's ones are looking good right now, lol!

Re: If you have the advent calendars from PBK...

We have a wooden family calendar. We have done little prizes, candy, trinkets, etc. Our favorite was when we did a puzzle...I put 4 connecting pieces of a hundred piece puzzle in each day...it was a lot of work, because I had to put it together and then take it apart with connecting pieces so it could build on itself each day. I'm doing that again this year because my kids liked it so much.

I do index cards with different activities written on them.

Some are simple (read a holiday story) others are more involved (drive around and see holiday lights, make cookies, buy a present to donate) a few involve treats.

ETA I have this one
