This is the calendar we use for our family:
Our Advent Calendar

Advent calendars serve as more than commercial products by allowing people to express both joy and creativity through their use. Many people create their own versions of Advent calendars which they personalize with unique family traditions and values. Children receive opportunities for altruism through calendars that provide acts of kindness instead of traditional gifts. The countdown becomes a season-long celebration of connection through small activities such as baking cookies, watching a Christmas movie, or writing letters to Santa.

THE WORLD’S AMAZING ADVENT CALENDARS

According to Guinness World Records, the world’s largest advent calendar was built in 2007 at the St. Pancras train station in London. The massive calendar measured 232 feet and 11 inches tall, and 75 feet and 5 inches wide. It was celebrating the reopening of the station following a renovation.

For several years, LEGO has produced a calendar set, featuring figures or constructible accessories behind every numbered door. This year (published in 2010), the company is offering a City version and a Star Wars Advent calendar.

Since 2008, the Big Picture photo blog has featured an Advent calendar of daily images from the Hubble Space Telescope. The spectacular photos are chosen by Alan Taylor, The Atlantic‘s senior photo editor.
