With Cadbury launching their biggest ever advent calendar, Cadbury would like to know which moment over the festive period your DCs are most excited about.

Here's what they say "This year we’re launching Cadbury’s biggest ever advent calendar and setting out to bring even more joy to the countdown this Christmas. 24 trucks, 24 doors, opening daily in 24 different locations, we’re ringing joyful festive surprises to the nation on the countdown to Christmas. While we’re counting down, we’re also keen to hear from Mumsnetters about which festive moment your kids can't wait for"

Find out about the Cadbury advent calendar by watching the video below:

So which festive moment are your DCs most excited about? You might be thrilled at the prospect of some time relaxing at home with your family, but if you asked your children - what would their response be? Perhaps they're dying to decorate the Christmas tree? Or take centre stage at their school nativity play? We're looking for the moments and treats that make Christmas for them, alongside the thrillingness of ripping wrapping off (lots of) presents.

Whichever festive moment your DCs can't wait for, Cadbury would love to hear about it.

Everyone who posts a comment will be entered into a prize draw where one lucky MNer will win a £200 Love2Shop voucher.

Thanks and good luck,
MNHQ

The whole thing - but especially presents - both giving and receiving.

My children are looking forward to a holiday at Christmas this year

My kids are getting steadily more excited as each advent window is opened, they are looking forward to the last day of school, this is when the excitement reaches fever pitch!!!

They really love sending out Christmas cards.

My little one is 3 and he's excited about Santa for the first time, properly anyway. He's excited about opening his calendar, though unsurprisingly wants to open them all at once, and then he's really looking forward to the big night when Santa comes. He's also excited about the candy cane he got from pre-school that is hanging on the tree, he can't wait to open it! We said Christmas Day, but I'd rather he never had it as I want to save his teeth!!!

My little one is so excited about Santa coming! He really understands what's going on this year & has embraced every bit of it - christmas lights, carol singers, overindulging on mince pies :) Can't wait to see his faces when he finds his little stocking on Christmas morning!! It's all so magical :)

RiSo · 07/12/2015 05:34

Opening the presents, my boys are still at the stage where its all about the toys. We did put the tree up yesterday though which they enjoyed, mainly because for every bauble we put on the tree the kittens or the toddler took 2 off. Carnage.
