*Christmas Countdown Calendar 2008

Are you one of those people who plans well ahead, do you leave things until the last minute, or are you lucky enough to have someone else who plans ahead for the whole family?

Planning ahead can save a lot of money and frustration. Here is our guide to help make your Christmas planning easier.

* September

  • Decide where you are spending Christmas and who you will invite.
  • Set budgets for gifts and entertaining.
  • Make a gift list and to-do list.
  • Decide what decorations and gifts you will make. Christmas craft projects for under-5s can be found at Lee's Teaching Resources
  • Decide on any household projects (cleaning, landscaping) and start/book as early as possible.
  • Book restaurants or function rooms for office parties and big functions.

* October

* November

* Early December

* 16 to 19 December

  • Final week to order Christmas hampers. Check each site carefully as some have already closed.
  • School Holidays! No School Today has some ideas for holiday activities.
  • Gift stocktake - order all remaining online gifts to allow time for delivery.
  • Order New Year decorations before Christmas.

* 20 to 21 December

  • Final check - check gifts lists, menus, budgets.
  • Be honest about any craft projects that won't get finished and buy alternative gifts locally.
  • Online gifts may still be available for delivery on Monday from some online shops in your city and through the florist networks

* Monday 22 December

  • Final check - batteries, non-perishables, wrapping paper, bonbons, etc.
  • Buy any emergency gifts - experience vouchers, magazines subscriptions.
  • Get supplies of medicines, non-alcoholic drinks, etc.

* Tuesday 23 December

  • Wrap remaining presents, check gift list again just in case.

* Wednesday 24 December - Christmas Eve

  • Pick up perishables (preferably preordered).
  • Ensure all presents are wrapped. If you are doing the rounds on Christmas Day, make sure all necessary presents are packed.
  • Leave a gift out for Santa and Rudolph.
  • Relax.

* Thursday 25 December - Christmas Day

  • Reduce your workload and stress and enjoy your Christmas Day!
