Product Description
This German advent calendar shows a Nisse pausing on his walk to watch the birds (bull finches) snacking on the winter sweetened berries. The Nisse's red suit, red & black birds & berries pop against the muted green and white forest landscape. A cozy red cabin is nestled at the foot of the forest in the deep Scandinavian snow.
The detailed picture has 24 little doors to open. Each door has a little picture behind it. The tradition is to open one door each day from December 1 thru December 24. Children love to open a door a day as they count down to Christmas.
