Children can design their own nativity scene over the course of the month with this handsome advent calendar by Kurt Adler. Crafted of wood and painted in a nighttime sky color scheme, the handsome piece features 24 doors around an empty manger. The magnetic character behind each door may be placed in the center to help fill out the scene as the days lead up to Christmas. The calendar measures 14-1/4 inches high by 17-1/4 inches wide and can be displayed on a wall or tabletop. --Kara Karll

I just received this Advent calendar and was pleasantly surprised at the quality. It is very sturdily constructed; I expect that this will last for years. Some things that aren't obvious from the picture/description: The inside of each compartment is painted dark blue. The tin manger scene in the center has raised areas, and the three dimensions give it a richer look than if it were flat. The nicest surprise was that each of the figures is wood and appears to be hand-painted. The magnet on each is small and embedded into the back of the figure, so the figure sits flush against the tin background. The magnets are strong, too, so each piece securely connects to the background (no sliding down once you let go). Please note that some of the figures are small (e.g., stars) and could present a choking hazard to a very young child. I wish it were a little deeper (I measure the depth at 1 and 5/8th inches), but because of the weight and sturdiness of it, it does stand securely on its own. There are two hooks at the top of the back for hanging it. All in all, I am very pleased with this calendar - I know my young daughter will enjoy the excitement of opening the doors each day and slowly creating the Nativity scene. And it is beautifully crafted, so I'll enjoy seeing it in our living room during the Advent season. It is well worth the cost. And incidently, it arrived two days after I ordered it (and I chose the Super Saver shipping, so 'didn't expect it to ship for 5 or more days).

Our family LOVES this Advent Calendar!!! I have two 8 year old daughters who have been enjoying this calendar for the past 4 years. It is the highlight of their day! They take turns opening the doors...my brown eyed daughter opens the brown doors and my blue eyed one opens the blue doors! I wrap all of the magnets in a bit of tissue paper so there is an element of suspense about which one they will get. I also add a small peice of candy (Hershey kisses, Brach's caramels, mini candy bars, and Goetz's caramel creams all fit nicely) and a little slip of paper with a bible passage for them to find in the bible and read to our family. It is a wonderful way to celebrate the true meaning of this blessed season! I have given one of these calendars to all of my godchildren as well.

This is a great advent calender. It is light weight, easy to manipulate for very young children, It sits nicely on a table or hang it on a wall. Magnetic pieces make it easy to apply.
