Product Description
Village Market Themed Advent Calendar
This German advent calendar with glitter accents depicts an olden scene of a village market in Germany. A peddler sells toys and balloons nearby a vendor selling her fall harvest fruits and vegetables. The town Christmas tree casts a warm glow on the snow crusted streets busting with activity.
The detailed picture has 24 little doors to open, with each hiding a small picture.
Tradition of the Advent Calendar
The tradition of the advent calendar dates back to 1851 in the Protestant parts of Germany. The first advent calendar with little doors was printed in the early 1900's and continues today. The tradition is to open one door each day from December 1 thru December 24 in anticipation of Christmas. A great activity to count down with family.
