Best Free Christmas Countdown Calendar Printable
Are you tired of hearing your kids endlessly ask how much longer it is until Christmas? Yeah, I got tired of that too, so I created a handy Christmas Countdown Calendar printable to provide a visual way to track how far away the big day is (without more candy)! Let your kids color a picture for each day to help them count down until Christmas Day.
When kids are older (say, 10+ years), they’re able to process and track how long it takes to get to Christmas.
But younger children struggle to understand the concept of time and how to keep track of it. And as a result, they constantly ask the whole family how long until Christmas.
I have found that visual aids, like a countdown calendar, are super helpful for them (and so much fun!). Unique advent calendars like this printable are just one of our many holiday traditions that we look forward to each year to get into the holiday spirit!
This Christmas countdown calendar printable is an easy-to-use printable advent calendar that you can use year after year to help your kids contain their excitement for Christmas!

Christmas Countdown Calendar
Many kids love advent calendars to countdown the days during the month of December until Christmas Day, but I don’t love the extra expense of buying countdown calendars every year.
That’s why I wanted to create a free printable advent calendar that you can use at home to help your kids count down to Christmas Eve.
How To Use Your Christmas Countdown Calendar Printable
Just print it out before December 1st and display it on your wall or another prominent area of your home.
Each evening, join the kids as they cross off (or color the image of) the day.
And if they ask (ad nauseam) how much longer until Christmas, simply send them to the printable and have them tell you how many more days!
That will save you from asking Siri over and over! Simply put the process of finding out into your kids’ hands by having them count how many more days.
Tips To Get The Most Out Of Your Free Christmas Countdown Calendar
- Color the picture (or cross off the square) for the day of the week. Then, when kids need to figure out how many days left, they can count the uncolored (or blank) squares.
- Save the file to print again next year.
- Or laminate your page and color it with dry erase markers. Then wipe it off and save it for next year.
- If you want to add a little treat, tape a festive Hershey’s Kiss for each child to the box for the day.
This Christmas Countdown Calendar Printable will be a fun addition to your Christmas season! This is such a fun way to provide a visual countdown for younger kiddos.
My kids have loved it. and I hope yours love it too!
