Ideas to put in wooden advent calendars

After seeing other threads on here about wooden advent calendars I think I'm going to get one this year.

Just looking for ideas of what to out in other than sweets/chocolate. I've seen suggestions to put in daily activities which sound great, but with DD3 due in November I need to be realistic :) I'm thinking maybe an activity at the weekends and a toy/treat during the week.

DDs will be 3.5 and 1.5.

Thanks in advance

Little animals? Carved wooden ones maybe?
Special Christmas decorations to hang on the tree? Advantage of being reused every year!

Thanks Thumbwitch

I love the idea of all these things, but practically it tends to stress me out if I can't find stuff then regret it (until it's all done)... Bit like homemade crackers!! :)

Fwiw I have saved that thread for next year when I plan on starting this and just know I will have forgotten all the great ideas.
