We had a
great Halloween, and as usual my kids got tons of candy. And guess what do we do with all of it? Make a Christmas countdown chain! We did this last year, and I cannot for the life of me remember where I got the idea. But it cut our Halloween stash down so much that I knew it would be something we do year after year. And the kids loved doing the countdown each day in December.
Just start by rolling out a reallllly long piece of saran wrap, add pieces of candy, wrap them and tie a ribbon in between.
I just did it for the month of December (25 pieces), and it cut my kids Halloween candy stash down to 7 pieces each. Now that I can handle.
And of course, save the best for last:
That's a great idea! Found you through TT&J's party. Pinned to try this year. :)
