This week, our ‘Supermarket Sweep’ topic continued by looking at Advent. We discussed why we thought Advent was celebrated and why we might use Advent calendars.
We also explored the concept of a ‘reverse’ Advent calender, promoted by the West Lothian Food Bank. Instead of taking an item out every day, people are encouraged to put a food item into a box each day. The items are then collected and given to families who are in need of a little extra help at Christmas time. You can find out more about West Lothian Food Bank and their Advent appeal using the link below:

We created our own ‘reverse’ Advent calendar in pairs, using items we might find at Marks & Spencer (including Percy Pigs, of course!). You can see some of our work below. #responsiblecitizens
Check in with us again next week!
