It's the start of advent for the Playmobil people in our house...

... and so each day I'll be posting a simple picture from the Playmobil advent calendar. I haven't had time to do any complicated scenes this year so it will just be one small photo per day.

What's behind the door today?

It's a sleigh!

Oh I love a simple picture calendar, this is perfect! A sleigh to take us into advent. Here we go!

Lovely. This reminds me of the advent calendars of my childhood where you had a glittery picture on the front then opened a window each day to find a robin or a star or something equally simple.

@ApolloandDaphne that's the kind of advent calendar we always have at home still (except mine doesn't actually have any glitter this year). My family have a little competition each year to see if we can guess what's behind the door each day!

Thank you all! I've enjoyed a wreath making workshop (with @petalpower ) this evening, to put me in the Christmas mood. Xmas Smile I'll be back in the morning to see what's behind door number 2.
