What do the countdown cards offer?

One card for each day until Christmas: a small act of kindness, a feelings chat, a short calming exercise or a family activity. They turn the excitement of waiting into moments that support children’s emotional skills.

The cards do not rely on shopping or gifts; a few minutes together each day is enough.

How to use it

Tips for parents

On busy days, choose a shorter card.
Feel free to simplify cards for younger children.
If you miss a day, there is no need to do two cards the next day.
