[quote=Anonymous]We just do the advent calendar I grew up with - it's a felt tree with little cloth ornaments in the slots below it and you velcro one on every day. Super simple, reusable, and free. It's not a big ticket activity though. Elf on a shelf is creepy and I don't have enough space anyway. Not sure what a Polar Express ride is. Kids don't believe in Santa - oldest has been a hard-core skeptic from a young age and we would have had to actively lie to his face at a level we weren't comfortable with to keep it going (none of this "Santa is the spirit of Christmas" or "he was a historical figure" stuff was satisfying this kid's questions even in preschool). We do like making cookies, usually the weekend before Christmas. We also like going to see the big model train near where my husband grew up and getting lunch at a pizza place nearby. [/quote]
