Hot Roundup! Modern Advent Calendars for Cool Kids
November 6, 2009 by Natalie · Leave a Comment
I’ve been on the hunt for cool advent calendars, both paper and reusable. They’re all decorative in their efforts to count down to the big day, with some great for role-play and story telling, and others that will be treasured and anticipated in excitement each year. Starting from £4.99 up to £59, from whimsy traditional to clean and minimalist, there’s something to suit your discerning tastes…

Papergrain is the hotness when it comes to stationery and they’ve kept it simple on the advent front with a beautifully illustrated collection ranging from £4.99 to £7.99.
Eric Carle’s Dream Snow Pop-up Advent Calendar
Based on the popular children’s story of the same name, each little window reveals a decoration. Simple, beautifully illustrated fun. £6.99 The Pod Company
