Birthday Count-down Calendar

Next week my middle monkey turns 6. 6!!!

So I made him a cute little Birthday Count-down calendar, sort-of a mini advent calendar 6 days before his birthday. Today he had a slip of paper that said "Choose either the box or the envelope". He chose the box, and inside the shoe box on the kitchen table was another slip of paper that said "You need to choose the envelope". Inside the envelope was the movie Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. Tomorrow he gets some gum. Kind of a let-down from today, but he's been home with a stomach bug, so he needed the movie today and not next week. Typically, we will put a chocolate or a few quarters or a little gift inside. I might need to make myself one of these in May...
