What is an Advent calendar?


If you’re anything like us, you’ll have been eagerly waiting for the clock to go past midnight on December 1st to have the first chocolate from this year’s Advent Calendar! These special festive calendars are used to count down to Christmas, all through the month of December. They traditionally offer simple treats like chocolate, but in recent years, holiday shoppers have been spoiled for choice with liquor, toy and make-up-filled alternatives. Retailers offer a variety of options, including wine, beer, cheese, candy, candles, and more.


So what’s the story behind Advent calendars? But what is the religious meaning of the calendar? And what's the deal with the kids? Why make them wait? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
