Is anyone disappointed with their advent calendar?

I've never had an advent calendar before apart from the odd cadburys one, but this year, for some reason best known to himself, husband bought me a Schleich farm one. Obviously I'm an adult, but I'm wondering if children get a bit disappointed with this type of calendar? On Wednesday I had a sticker, yesterday a cabbage, and today a pitchfork. Hopefully tomorrow will be good, as I can tell by the shape that Sunday's going to be another bit of fence.

I made my teen daughters advent calendars for the first time this year after being inspired by mumsnet, and stuck to a £25 each budget. I wish someone would make one for me.

I just wondered if anyone else was a bit disappointed, or if not, suggestions of a good one (to buy myself) next year.

I've got a lindt one. Very underwhelmed, it's the red lindor ball most of the days. Dp is loving his Lego star wars one.

Ds is only 5.5 months so I've been eating the chocolate coins out of his truck from the GPs.

Was bought the selfridges one and I'm loving it.
Lots of skincare and perfume so far.
