Counting down to Christmas!

These simple elf houses were built by my children, with papers and sticks

It's already 3 December here, and there are only 21 days to Christmas. Though I don't really celebrate Christmas, I always have some activities to do with my children - make some gifts for them, tell them stories, make crafts with them. So, December is always a busy month for me, and I also need to plan for the new year. Are you busy shopping for Christmas now? Do you do anything to count down to Christmas, such as advent calendar?

We don't have much shopping to do so we are very lucky in that respect - although it's a bit sad too.

@Marty1 We only have our pet sheep, Herc. Maybe I'll buy him something for Christmas.

We don't know many actively involved. Many are not buying anything this year.

I am not busy shopping for Christmas. Since I plan to do it online. I am not in a hurry, too. Since there are still plenty of time to prepare for the good gifts. I shall check whether I can find some good deals on December 12th as it seems it is another promotion time.

I do not do a lot of Christmas shopping, I only buy a few gifts, for my niece, my Mom and my husband. Everything is ready for Christmas. Tomorrow I put up the decorations.

I meant to buy an advent calendar but forgot so I'm just enjoying the build up knowing I have my presents sorted and just need to relax and enjoy the season

Yes, so many people are busy preparing for Christmas (those who have the budget for it).

It is a very busy month with shopping, decorating and cooking or the holidays. It is all worth it though when we get together with family and celebrate the holiday season.
