It's nearly December and that means it's time to get ready for this year's advent calendar!
An Advent calendar is a special calendar which is used to count or celebrate the days of Advent in anticipation of Christmas. Today, most advent calendars are made for children. Many take the form of a large rectangular card with many "windows", one of which is opened every day during Advent. In less elaborate calendars, each window opens to reveal an image, a poem, or part of a story such as the Nativity story itself. More elaborate Advent calendars have a small gift concealed in each window, such as a toy or a chocolate item.
If you are interested, you can buy the chocolate ones in LIDL. I saw them yesteday in that supermarket... they are lovely!! In fact, I bought one of them in order to open it day by day in my classes. I´m sure my students will love it!
