It's the Christmas season for the Playmobil people in our house...

[SoMuchToBits]

...and so I'm bringing you another advent calendar this year, showing what the Playmobil people are getting up to in the run up to Christmas.

Matthias is putting up his Christmas decorations and Marta has come over to help him.

You will have to wait and see!

@SoMuchToBits you tease!

I thought the whole point of an advent calendar was that you didn't know what was in it until the day!

True, true! 🙂

I love playmoland, I have shown ds all the pictures whenever there had been a playmo event & it has inspired him to start doing similar things with his lego minifigures. He is autistic & has always played out his worries through Lego, a few years ago exh his dad was in hospital for nearly a year, he built a massive hospital that had lifts, revolving doors, everything he built in incredible detail, he is following this thread now & asks to see the pictures every time there are new ones posted.

I too am rooting fro Marta and Matthias. Are Playmo hands able to hold one another?

Brilliant

@Nat6999 great to know we have a fan in your ds!

@FuzzyPuffling they can sort of hold hands loosely...

Like this...

Back at home in Lowbeach-on-Sea, Matthias has been opening his Christmas cards which have arrived.

Marta has received some too.

Love Matthias’ little nativity scene

Must be a different time zone and country to have Christmas cards arriving today?!!

They probably arrived while they were away

Hold on... do some people not get post on Saturdays?

What a fantastic thread! Thank you so much for posting @SoMuchToBits , you just made my 11 year old dd’s day! She has autism and is very imaginative, she cried (happy tears) when I showed her all the various scenes. She wants to go around to your house to play , she said it must be a Playmobil palace!

We got cards today, we always get mail on Saturdays.

I love Marta's cards, And her house. And Marta.

We get post on Saturdays even though we are very rural.

We get post on Saturdays too!

Yeah I'm rural and we get mail on Saturdays too. At this time of year we sometimes get a Sunday delivery.

@ForalltheSaints where are you from that you don't get mail on Saturdays?

@FluffyPinkSocks I'm glad your dd is enjoying the thread!

This year's panto is Snow White. The wicked stepmother asks the mirror who is the fairest.

Abandoned in the forest, Snow White finds the dwarfs' cottage.

The dwarfs return from work.
