12 Vacation Countdown for Kids {tutorials}

Today I’m featuring children advent calendars specifically for vacation count down ideas.  My boys are stoked about our family vacation this year but my little one thinks we are leaving tomorrow. {{sigh}} To help this confused little soul, I decided to make him a vacation count down or advent calendar.

I thought you might be having the same problem.  So here are several versions that you can create for your family.  I hope you’ll look past the holiday themes and use the inspiration and adapt it to summer.  {{wink}}
