I really need to find 2 advent calendars for my 7 & 9yo DDs.
I did buy them fidget ones but the boxs arrived all smashed up. The contents are ok so I’ve wrapped them as Xmas presents.
I just want something mid range, not expensive as I’ve already forked out €60 on the fidget ones.
I don’t want to make my own. We usually do a diy one each year but this year we are not. We moved mid year and don’t have the room to put the diy ones up, they are big felt tree ones. I considered the elfs bringing the fidgets but decided against that as my other DD as a boxed toy one and it would get to messy with questions of why the elfs were bringing their advent toys and not #3 child’s.
In the past Lego has gone down well, mainly for 9yo we have a lot of HP Lego so they like these. Not keen on Lego friends. Also got 7yo a makeup one last year but she’s not as into makeup as much now.
They are not typical girls and growing out of toys. Star Wars is a winner for both especially 7yo so I could do Star Wars Lego but after the initial building she’d loose interest, I don’t want to spend all that money for that to happen.
Anything bathbomb or toiletries related is out.
Usually I see loads of advent calendars around but can’t seem to find anything suitable this year.
Ideally I was thinking, socks, maybe jewellery making, they are not big jewellery girls but if it was Xmas themed they’d enjoy, stationary….
Any help welcome
