Macy has really started to grasp the concept of time the last few months. It is so hard to explain to kids weeks, days, or even hours. Anytime we have a event coming up such as a birthday, holiday, or in this case our Disney vacation she likes to make a countdown chain. She got this idea last year from Pre-K. It's so good for her and Mackenzie. I tell Macy how many days till something and she totally makes the chain on her own. Then each morning her and Mackenzie tear one off and then count how many days left till we leave. It makes them that much more excited about things and keeps me from going nuts with them constantly asking "How much longer till.....?!?!"
