... and so each day up until Christmas I will be bringing you a small scene from Playmoland. A kind of Playmobil advent calendar, with just a simple picture each day.

What's behind the door today?

Some snowmen which the children have made! Xmas Smile

Ah, lovely to see you @viques , I remember you from previous Playmo threads. Pleased you found us in time!

@Whiskeypowers I hope they are drinking moderately and won't have a hangover tomorrow!

I'm still hoping to see the puddingheads.

ChessieFL · 22/12/2023 10:17

Glad they didn’t start on the wine too soon before Christmas!

I'm not too sure the puddingheads would be welcome in an advent calendar! Xmas Shock But I expect they will feature in future events.

Season of peace and goodwill to all, even pudding heads.

SoMuchToBits · 22/12/2023 11:26

I expect the puddingheads will be enjoying a festive beverage even though it may not have been obtained by honest means.

Even puddingheads deserve a nice Christmas (I think of them a bit like those blasted Elves)

SoMuchToBits · 22/12/2023 13:19

I expect one of the Father Christmases will bring them something even if they haven't been good all year. Xmas Grin

What's behind the door today? Some cosy plastic woolly accessories!

The Playmos will need those in all that snow!

KeeeeeepDancing · 23/12/2023 08:45

OP have you ever put the photos and your posts made into a wee book?

SoMuchToBits · 23/12/2023 09:09

@KeeeeeepDancing no, but I do also post them on FB, and for each "event" I have compiled an album. So the current one I'm adding a photo (with a comment) to the album each day. It means if I want to reference past events easily, I can just visit the album and see the posts in order. Xmas Smile

It’s funny how you never see Playmo people knitting or crocheting.

MoverOfPaper · 23/12/2023 09:25

I’ve opened a few doors this morning, what a treat. I laughed at the chipboard wing angels! I do like a mitten, I might import some from Playmoland as they’re not easy to come across in my world.

SoMuchToBits · 23/12/2023 10:02

@TheCountessofFitzdotterel I don't think Playmo people have knitting needles or crochet hooks, although they do have balls of wool, although these are largely used for kittens to play with!

Kittens!!! I need more playmo kittens in my life.

petalpower · 23/12/2023 11:39

Who do the woolly items belong to?

MoverOfPaper · 23/12/2023 11:52

Playmo kittens! <faints>

SoMuchToBits · 23/12/2023 13:57

The scarf belongs to Klara and the blue hat to Friedrich. The red hat is Emil's. The mittens belong to Gerhard and Jonas.

There are quite a few kittens in Playmoland! We have some in our nativity set. Xmas Smile

I’m wondering if tomorrow’s picture will include harassed looking Playmo people whose online grocery delivery is missing a vital component, whose sellotape and scissors have gone missing in action and whose families are having a bit of a moment?

SoMuchToBits · 24/12/2023 08:20

Haha @petalpower that's a lovely idea but...

... what's behind the door today? A baby Jesus! With Mary, Joseph and some animals.

Ahh lovely - this has been so good OP. Is there one more tomorrow or is that it now? 🥺

SoMuchToBits · 24/12/2023 08:48

@NooNakedJacuzziness you'll have to wait and see... Xmas Wink
