Here’s an Advent song to sing to the tune of “Twinkle, twinkle, little star”

Advent is a time to wait (hold hand up as you say “wait”)

Not quite time to celebrate, (shake head and wag finger from side to side)

Count the candles 1 by 1 (put 4 fingers up, 1 at a time)

Until Advent time is done (wave hands, palms down)

Day by day we work and play, (stack fist on top of fist over and over)

To get ready for Christmas day! (give yourself a hug!)
