It is already a tradition from the 19th century, to have an advent calendar in the house. The word Advent comes from the Latin word “Adventus”, which means “Coming”. So it's a calendar to prepare for the arrival of the Christmas party.

For children, it's a nice schedule to keep track of how many nights he/she needs to sleep before it's really Christmas. With these Advent calendars, made at the request of Crea with Kids, the preparation for Christmas will be even more fun!

Every day you can color a Christmas ball, strip it off or attach something to it. If you laminate it, you can also save it to get it every year for the day. Which one do you choose?

There are a lot of possibilities, as far as advent calendars are concerned. They come in different shapes, sizes, with shutters, compartments and pouches. Some countdown calendars contain chocolates or small gifts.
