My mom just got this really neat one for my nieces this year! It's the nativity scene on this felt like material and each day has a little person or animal to decorate the scene with. It's really cute.

I need to get one ASAP! I didn't realize until a few years ago that there are other options besides the chocolate ones haha. I totally want to make one now @Smurfette: that is amazing!
Btw, the chocolate ones? Yeah, I love that cheap terrible chocolate. Also, it's portion control at its finest

@autumnlove: I'm not religious (though DH and my ILs are). I just like the idea of a mini present each day until Christmas!
@MamaG: @Mrs. Taco: @.twist.: Mmmmm yum. That's what my mom used to get us in the past too butI would deliberately go a few days between checking it so I could eat more candy
@Smurfette: Really cute, lady!

@abbydabbydoodlebug: That's really sweet. I'm sure my MIL would be all over having something like that for the kids. And a great way to engage them in the story.
@sunny: Zomg Love!! Want!! Would never find the time to do it though. It would end up in my 'never finished' pile of crafts I'm afraid. But sooooo cute.

I'm thinking I may try and make one next year but for now we're sticking with the good old chocolate one.

Do people make/get new ones every year? We have this one I always put up. But I've never put anything inside them.

@shopaholic: I am going to use mine every year. Since it has boxes I can put something different in them every year

We don't have an advent calendar but we do have this year round Christmas count down. DH loves Disney and Christmas so when we saw it in the store, we just had to get it.

We have two for this year. A chocolate/scripture one and a homemade one with a different activity each day.

Ooh this reminds me that I need to get one when I go grocery shopping. I've always just bought the ones Trader Joes sells, but I think next year I'm going to make one.
