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

[SoMuchToBits]

... 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!

@QuiltedBear I haven't used the owl this time, mainly as I've done just some very simple pictures. It was a bit of a last minute decision to do an advent calendar this year (prompted largely by @petalpower's suggestion when I saw her a few weeks ago). Maybe next year I'll get my act together and produce something more substantial with more details in the scenes!

What's behind the door today? Father Christmas and his elves, busy in their workshop!

I so want to play with that little train set

Love their little elf hats!

This is such a gorgeous treat each day, @SoMuchToBits
Thank you!

This is so much better than a chocolate advent calendar OP! Are you the same poster that did the Jubilee (or was it the Coronation)?

@NooNakedJacuzziness yes, It was me who did the Platinum Jubilee. And some royal weddings, and a Playmo pandemic, as well as previous advent calendars, and a summer holiday thread.

Placemarking, I LOVE Playmo!

Oh I’ve never looked at these threads now I’m not quite sure why! This is gorgeous, I’m already looking forward to what else is to come!

I shall be looking back through your threads again @SoMuchToBits. I think the Playmo Pandemic thread was my favourite - it brought so much quiet, gentle joy to what was such a bleak time for so many.

*Also, your calendar is always the best calendar of the season. 🎄🎄🎄

Your Jubilee one was so much fun - looking forward to the rest of this one too. Can't believe I missed the pandemic one!

The pandemic one spanned quite a long period of time! I think I started it in April 2020 and posted something every day for the first couple of months, then added to it every now and then for over a year.

Love the red hat snowman!!

How did I manage to miss this the first two days? Lovely to see you & the Playmo people back, @SoMuchToBits

Simply wonderful.

Lovely!

This is bringing me joy, thank you so much @SoMuchToBits 💖

Yay. I've only just spotted this. I love Playmoland.

So pleased you did this @SoMuchToBits !

Santa and the Elves getting ready to spread their Christmas joy.

Just like this thread.

Magical. ✨ 🎁 ✨

@SoMuchToBits , would you kindly post a link to your Jubilee and Pandemic threads please? I think I have only seen a royal wedding one before maybe. Thank you and thanks for spreading the Christmas joy with this thread too.

Thank you the world needs more wholesome stuff like this.

I love this thread so much 😊

(I have some Playmobil ice skates in one of my Playmobil advent calendars. Not sure how many years they’ve been coming out for 😊)

My children were more excited to see the scene you had created than eating the chocolate palm oil shite in their actual advent calendars. Righty so! They were delighted.

Thank you everyone! Loving all the comments.
