Let’s turn your To-Do list into an Advent Calendar!

Published on 3/15/2025

An Advent Calendar, usually made from fabric or paper, contains 24 pockets filled with treats, small gifts, or fun surprises. You open one pocket each day, counting down the days until Christmas with excitement.

We recommend creating your own To-Do list using these 24 pockets, just like an Advent Calendar.

This way, you can break up your tasks into manageable pieces, making it easier to tackle procrastination and stay motivated.

How to Create a To-Do List Advent Calendar

Things you’ll need: 24 pieces of paper, a pen, and tape.

Write your tasks on the 24 pieces of paper.

Tips: Don’t write necessary tasks. We recommend focusing on easy tasks and those you’ve been procrastinating.

1, Fold the 24 pieces of paper with your tasks.

2,Shuffle them.

3,Place them in a box or paper bag.

Tips: For workdays, choose simple and easy tasks, and for your days off, pick tasks that take more than 30 minutes.

You can use a different color for tasks on your days off (as shown in the picture).

Put the papers on the wall, and start working through them from the 1st of December.

Put the papers on the wall like a Christmas tree!

One of the enjoyable parts of this method is opening the tasks.

Of course, you already know your tasks, but you’ll still enjoy discovering what you’ve chosen.
