It's a countdown to Christmas calendar. We have never used it. I don't even remember where I got it. Tween dug it out this year and hung it on the door jamb. No idea why he chose that spot. Little S was so excited about it. It was hung up a few days after Thanksgiving when we were decorating and I didn't give it another thought.
Tween has been filling the little bags every day and giving the "present" to Little S. Little S thinks that the elves fill it each night. Tween took this all on himself and has been having a blast with it. He sometimes sticks a piece of candy in it, a coin or even a little trinket.
I am so proud of him for sticking to it and for making Christmas come a little more alive for Little S.
Have your kids done something for one another recently that surprised you?

That is a really cool thing to do! What a great memory they will share.
That is sooo cool!!! It's the little surprises at Christmas that mean so much. Your boys are GREAT!! I spent one Christmas in the hospital and my young nephew stuffed a stocking with goodies and had a nurse hang it on my bed during the night. He's grown, married and just had a new son now, but I'll never forget that Christmas.
I hope yours is wonderful!!

That is sweet.
