Can anyone please recommend a good Christmas advent calendar for this year. Looking for three in total for me, dh and dd. Dd is 10. All options considered. ( nope it's not November 2021, I've just realized that I didn't buy advent calendars this year 🤦‍♀️)

Sorry I don't have a recommendation but maybe a 12 days of Christmas one starting Christmas day would be a good idea?

@NoMoreTractors great idea. I could pop them in the stockings for Christmas day 😊

I've just had a quick look on Google but cant really find any. Not sure where to look to be honest.

Glitter and raspberry, yeah I am such a twit for forgetting about them 🤦‍♀️

@StarryNightSparkles I for one wouldn't complain about eating 20+ days worth of adventure calendar chocolates in one go but not quite the same!

The 12 days of Christmas calendar is a good idea. Just quickly looking on Amazon they've got anything from pringles ones, beauty, toiletries, fidget toys, socks... lots to choose from!

Am I missing something here? The point of an Advent calendar is to have something to open each day all December. If your family have survived this far into December without one, can they not manage another 4 days?? Or alternatively, you could go to the shops tomorrow and maybe buy a discounted chocolate one... or here, John Lewis have a few in stock still, heavily reduced. Then you can rip through the first 21 doors at once .. I can't think of anything more joyless.
