How this count works

One sleep is one night. The count follows the date where you are, so it goes down by one at midnight in your time zone.

Christmas Eve is December 24. On Christmas Eve the count shows 0, and the next day it moves on to the following year.

Questions about this countdown

Does tonight count as a sleep?

Yes. Tonight is the first sleep and the night before Christmas Eve is the last. The day before Christmas Eve, the count shows 1 sleep. On Christmas Eve, it shows 0.

Why is the number of sleeps the same as the number of days?

Every day still to come has one night before it. The day count leaves out today and includes Christmas Eve; the sleeps start tonight and stop the night before. Both come to the same number.

How do I use the sleep chart?

Each circle is one night, numbered with the sleeps left. Cross off one circle each morning. The chart prints on its own with the Print the sleep chart button.

Which time zone does the count use?

Your device's time zone, named on the Today line at the top of the page. Choose another time zone in the form to count the nights there instead.
