43 days until Christmas
Today is Christmas!
6 weeks and 1 day · 43 sleeps · 31 weekdays, 12 weekend days
Counting to midnight in U.S. Eastern time.
An advent calendar is a countdown you open. Twenty-Four Windows, our sister site, makes one for someone you love: a little house with a window that opens each December morning until Christmas, and behind each window a photo, a voice note, a memory, or a real gift. Family can each fill a window. It's free to make and preview and $9 to send.
6 Saturdays before Christmas: November 14, November 21, November 28, December 5, December 12, December 19.
Counting today and not the day itself, the 43 days split into 31 weekdays (Monday to Friday) and 12 weekend days.
Kids understand sleeps better than days. Print this, stick it on the fridge, and color in one ornament every night before bed. The last one is Christmas morning.
