I added this to the advent calendar because I can remember my parents letting us do this each year on Christmas Eve. We thought it was so cool to open a present early, and I wanted to share that tradition with Madelyn.
My initial thought was for her to pick one from under the tree, but we made a shift in our plans and the family ending up getting together at Auntie Kristin's house for dinner. This gave Grammy the opportunity to fly to Indiana on Christmas morning. Since she was going to be gone for Christmas breakfast, Grammy thought it would be fun for the kids to open their presents while she was here. So... this was perfect for today's activity (and...Madelyn got to open more than one gift!)
