THE TRADITION OF ADVENT CALENDARS IS SUCH A FUN WAY TO GET EXCITED FOR CHRISTMAS. LAST YEAR, I MADE THE ROOKIE MISTAKE OF GIVING OUR KIDS AN ADVENT CALENDAR WITH CHOCOLATE IN EACH DAY, AND IT JUST BECAME TOO.MUCH.CHOCOLATE. I’VE ALSO HEARD THE ADVENT CALENDARS WITH A LITTLE TOY EVERY DAY LEAD TO A LOT OF TCHOTCHKES THAT PILE UP AND NEVER GET PLAYED WITH, SO FOR THIS ROUND-UP, I TRIED TO FOCUS ON THE CORE OF THE TRADITION WITH BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED ADVENT CALENDARS THAT YOU WILL ENJOY YEAR AFTER YEAR.
+ HOW FUN ARE THIS ONE AND THIS ONE FROM TARGET — BOTH ARE ONLY $10 AND YOUR KID(S) WILL LOVE MOVING THE LITTLE STAR/TREE EVERY DAY AS THEY COUNTDOWN TO SANTA’S ARRIVAL. BUY THESE BEFORE THEY SELL OUT (LIKE THEY DID LAST YEAR!)
+ I LOVE THIS CHRISTMAS TREE AND THIS NATIVITY SCENE. EACH POCKET COMES WITH A DECORATIVE ORNAMENT THAT YOUR KID(S) CAN ATTACH THE THE TREE, SO THEY CAN ENJOY PUTTING ONE ORNAMENT ON THE TREE EACH DAY. I LOVE THAT IT WOULD BE EASY ON MOM, SOMETHING FUN FOR THE KID TO DO, AND DOESN’T INVOLVE CANDY/TOYS. THIS IS A SIMILAR ONE FROM TARGET, BUT IT ONLY STARTS THE COUNTDOWN 12 DAYS OUT FROM CHRISTMAS, BUT ALSO HAS SUPER CUTE ORNAMENTS THE KIDS CAN ENJOY ADDING TO THE TREE!
+ WELCOMING THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS, THIS SET INCLUDES A DEVOTION FOR EVERY DAY — FROM THE FIRST OF DECEMBER ALL THE WAY ‘TIL CHRISTMAS DAY, HELPING PREPARE OUR HEARTS TO CULTIVATE THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS IN OUR EVERYDAY LIVES.
+ THIS TARTAN SANTA OR THIS SWEET ANGEL ARE PERFECT FOR CELEBRATING THE COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS. MOVE HIS LITTLE CANDY CANE DAY BY DAY UNTIL CHRISTMAS DAY. YOU’LL ENJOY THIS BEAUTIFUL KEEPSAKE YEAR AFTER YEAR.
+ LIEWOOD ADVENT CALENDAR DESIGN IS PERFECT IF YOU WANT TO BUY YOUR OWN LITTLE GIFTS FOR EACH DAY, OR YOU CAN FIND A SOFT ORNAMENT AND LET YOUR KID(S) MOVE IT FROM ONE DAY TO THE NEXT!
+ THIS MAGNETIC MELISSA & DOUG ADVENT CALENDAR ($35) IS SO CUTE AND EVERY KID WOULD LOVE PLACING A NEW ORNAMENT ON THE TREE EACH DAY AS THEY COUNTDOWN TO THE MOST WONDERFUL DAY OF THE YEAR.
+ THIS CREATIVE KIT, WHERE YOUR CHILD CAN MAKE THEIR OWN ADVENT CALENDAR (ONLY $18) WOULD BE FUN FOR AN OLDER KID — AT THE END THEY WILL HAVE CREATED A BIG BEAUTIFUL DOLL HOUSE!
+ THIS WEST ELM SANTA JUST EXUDED HOLIDAY JOY — THE BIG READ JOLLY SANTA – WOULD BRING CHEER WHEREVER YOU HANG IT YEAR AFTER YEAR. I LIKE THEY YOU CAN HIDE LITTLE SURPRISES FOR YOUR KIDS (NOTE TO SELF: RESEARCH SAID LITTLE SURPRISES THAT AREN’T JUNK / TOO EXPENSIVE) AND SURPRISES
+ LAST BUT NOT LEAST, I LOVE THIS WOODEN TREE ADVENT CALENDAR WITH THE SWEET BOXES. AGAIN, YOU COULD HIDE A LITTLE TREAT OR NOTE EACH DAY, WHICH GIVES YOU THE FLEXIBILITY TO SOMETHING TREAT THEM TO CHOCOLATE (OR TINY TOY), BUT NOT EVERY.SINGLE.DAY.
