I absolutely love advent calendars and I really like to try new ones every year! We've tried it all - beer, chocolate, tea, books, lego, you name it! I'm really excited with our family advent calendars that I picked out this year!
We have some classic calendars in here, but we also have a small-batch Calgary chocolate company and a hot chocolate advent calendar in here! (I love that companies have become so creative with their advent calendars - there is something for everyone out there! I heard there is even a cheese calendar! So fun!)
The best part about the calendars we picked up this year is that they are all new to us and we haven't tried any of them before! That always makes it fun - I do like to make sure we are switching it up!
Two of these are from bigger brand/franchises and two are from smaller companies - again, trying that 50/50 balance for Christmas this year with smaller or local companies!
I know it might be hard to believe with all the beauty advent calendars out there, that I've never tried the Sephora Collection Advent Calendar ($60.00 CAN) before! I've managed to try the Look Fantastic and Body Shop ones, but never Sephora Collection. I personally like that this one is on the lower end of the cost of the beauty advents and I typically like most of the Sephora Collection products that I've tried!
And, for my toddler, it was easy this year to go with a cute little Paw Patrol Advent Calendar ($34.99 CAN) - he likes little figures and this is a perfect way to keep him entertained and helping with the countdown to Christmas (seriously, every night we have to say Santa isn't coming yet, so now we can employ a little countdown tool!)
I was really excited that I found my teenager a hot chocolate advent calendar - he could drink hot chocolate every day and now he gets to! I picked up the Yawn Brew 2020 Hot Chocolate Advent Calendar (£28.00) and it comes with two of 12 different hot chocolate flavours and I think he will love it!
My husband love chocolate, so I thought this year I would pick him up some good chocolate! Kin + Pod is a local Calgary chocolatier and they came out with this 2020 Weird and Wonderful Winter Advent Calendar ($45.00 CAN) and it sounded great and looked so cute!
