Advent Calendar Day 1: Jacquie Lawson Advent Calendar

 

Still suffering with back pain (looks like I have something called piriformis syndrome), but I’m going to try a short, sweet Christmassy blog post every day as a little Advent Calendar for you all.

First up you must get your kids (and yourselves) a Jacquie Lawson Advent Calendar.  These magically beautiful online calendars feature gorgeous animations, and lovely music, with a new little interactive Christmassy game or a charming little story or scenario every day.  As you open more windows the scene becomes more detailed and beautiful, and it changes through the day to reflect the time and the phases of the moon.  The Minx loves the little games such as decorating the Christmas tree and cutting out snowflakes online and spotting how the scene changes from day to day.  (I’d say this was perfect for 5-10 year olds).

The Minx is now excite to be working on this year’s beautiful Alpine village, but we retain a soft spot in our hearts for last year’s gorgeous London calendar which is still available.

Yes, the London one was/is fab! My favorite (on either) is how the main scene changes day to day.

  • Cindy on A Right Pain in the Butt

    Paola,

    Just happened upon your blog and am thoroughly enjoying it...something I don't normally do. Anyway, hope your sciatica is better. I went through the same thing and it lasted about six months. Went to chiropractor, didn't help; deep tissue massage was helpful; had a TENS treatment that worked for several hours; stopped all exercise, except walking; bought 'Lose the Back Pain' and was very faithful to the program's stretching regimen..all to no avail. Bought an inversion table, which I found to be very helpful by getting blood supply to that area. After lots of laying on the couch, eventually, without any doctor intervention, I finally came out of it. I also discovered yoga during this time. My lower back pain still persisted, but that was nothing compared to the pain in my glute. Now, four years later I'm starting to get that feeling again in my glute...not good. The good news, however, is recently my lower back pain has disappeared. I think I know why. Good luck to you, but I honestly think it's something you have to work through on your own and it will go away.

    This all looks FANTASTIC, Miss Paola! Hopefully, we get the chance to check out all of these fab recommendations!

  • k on Things I Am Loving: Forms in Nature

    That's amazing. I don't think I could sleep in there, though. (Chicken.)

  • Dana on Project 52: Sign of the Times

    You are totally right. When did the Minx get so big? You've taken a beautiful picture of her.

  • Dana on Gulf Shores Food Photography Workshop

    What captivating photos Paola. I had never even heard of Gulf Shores before (inveterate West Coaster here) and now would love to see for myself. I am very much interested in how this workshop changed you and your work, so please consider further posts about your experience.
