Choose your year and week start

The undated layout starts Monday and leaves date boxes blank for your chosen year. The dated layouts are specifically December 2026: the first falls on Tuesday and the 25th on Friday. Choose Monday or Sunday as your first weekday. Each download includes all three pages; print only the one you need.

Turn a month view into a countdown

Choose the days you want to mark, rather than filling every box. Write a shared story, a drawing, a thank-you note or a day off. Cross out a date after the moment, or add a small pencil star. The calendar is an organiser, not a book of 24 supplied puzzles or a physical Advent product.

A small example week

On Monday, draw an imaginary festive window. On Tuesday, tell a three-sentence story together. On Wednesday, leave the space free. On Thursday, draw a thank-you card. On Friday, choose a familiar family game. Adapt the reading and making to the people joining you; there is no required score.

Print or type into the optional fields

Use A4 with A4 paper or US Letter with Letter paper. Print one test page at actual size; use fit-to-printable-area if your printer clips an edge. You can type dates into the undated page and a short note into the bottom field using a compatible PDF reader. Save and reopen your copy to check values, or simply write after printing. There are no automatic calculations.

Choose a supplied adventure if you want daily missions

If you want prepared family activities rather than blank calendar boxes, compare the separate 24 Days to Star Lantern Night book. It provides a daily mission sequence with easier joining-in options and optional extra challenges. Its paid content and the free calendar serve different purposes.
