3. Cut own the circular numbers on sheets two and three of the template,
4. Glue the pegs onto the sheet, making sure that there is room for you to attached the numbers to the end of the pegs,
5. Pop the right number in there, depending on what day in December you are, and
6. There you have it, your advent calendar craft that helps to know how many days there are until Christmas. Make sure you turn it over every single day with the kids.
