The Advent calendar is now an institution! Every year asChristmasapproaches, youngand old alike eagerly await the opening of this famous calendar, which marks the beginning of the countdown to the arrival of the much-anticipatedSanta Claus! Did you know that the Advent calendar tradition comes from Germany?
Originally, every morning in December, parents would give their children pictures, usually religious ones, to keep them occupied until Christmas. This tradition quickly caught on. In the 20th century, a publisher came up with the very first version of an advent calendar, consisting of pictures to color on a cardboard backing, and a few years later, a calendar with little doors or windows to open.
Little by little , the images were replaced by squares of chocolate,andnowadays you can find everything: Advent calendars with beer, tea, coffee, or even beauty products... There's something for everyone!
And of course, there are lots of them available every year for children. Inside, you'll find games, toys, dolls, etc. To help you make your choice, we've put together a small selection of 2023 Advent calendars for children!
