This is a more interactive advent calendar featuring daily activities for all the family.
Start by creating a rectangle the size of your pocket. Add a rectangle to each side, slightly more than half the width of the pocket. Add a rectangle to the bottom and a half circle to the top. Decorate and number each pocket.
You can print each pocket on basic paper because it has to fold easily. Also ensure that you have a grey or some other non-white colour in the background to show you where the pocket ends and needs to be cut.
Fold along the rectangle lines. Glue the two side pieces together for the back, then glue the bottom over that. Fold but don’t glue the half circle because you need to be able to insert and remove what’s inside.
