Hajj / Eid Lolly Countdown Calendar

September 29, 2014 by modestmunchies 6 Comments

Ok, ok! I know I said I was trying to move away from giving lollies in these things, but come on, the cookie monster is 3!! THREE I tell you, and what doesn’t excite a 3 year old more than lollies? I know it’s not the greatest for their teeth or their tummies, but he barely has any sweet things at all. Have I pleaded my case yet?

Also, this post is late, *hangs head in shame*, what’s a mum to do? There’s still time to make this though, or just save this idea for next year.

I wanted this calendar to be fun for him, and I’m doing that in a few ways. Last year I did this as a poster with lollies and activities in the pockets, this year I’m doing that as part of a Hajj/Eid table (post coming soon) as well as this lolly countdown calendar. It’s pretty simple, all you need is a 12 whole muffin pan, craft or gift wrapping paper, tape and some lollies/candy to fill them with. You don’t have to follow my lead and go with a lolly filled one like I have, you could fill it with whatever you like.

Hajj Eid Lolly Countdown Calendar

I filled each cup, then covered with gift wrap and taped down the edges. If you’re concerned about insects or anything else, then wrap each one individually. With a marker, I numbered each covered section. I had to skip #10, the day of Eid al Adha, it got squished in between the rows. There’s just no other way to make the calendar work, unless there’s a 13 whole muffin pan out there, plus I’m sure there’ll be plenty of treats on Eid day anyway.

Don’t forget to check out my last post 29+ Ideas for Hajj at Home for Kids for some added inspiration.

Today I'm bringing you these Peanut Butter Chocola Today I'm bringing you these Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Chickpea Blondies, they're a mouthful to say and an even better mouthful to eat. These are dairy free, refined sugar free, gluten free, grain free and even vegan friendly. If there's one thing you should know about me by now it's that I have a sweet tooth, but I have to be realistic, I can't be eating desserts all day every day, even though I'd like to, lol. Having these on hand has made satisfying my sweet tooth a lot easier and with a lot less guilt.⁣
