When I visited my grand kids this weekend, they excitedly showed me the advent calendar their family had made. Each day had a kindness activity (in red ink) and a fun family activity (in green ink) Some of the family activities were combined with the kindness activities to reinforce the idea that service and kindness are fun. For example one day's activities are "make a hot chocolate mix and package it for gifts.-- then sit down and enjoy a warm cup of cocoa and a movie with the family."
Involving the kids in designing you own family's advent calendar is such a great idea and makes it even more meaningful.
