I LOVE Advent Calendars. Counting down to anything is fun but counting down to Christmas brings joy to those young and old. From wine to LEGOs, you may have noticed a trend toward Advent Calendars that pack a little more punch than your average paper chain or piece of chocolate.
So I’ve decided to round up some of my favorite deals for you. Please keep in mind when it comes to purchasing anything for your kids, you need a place for small toys. If you don’t have adequate storage, look for something else. Otherwise, you’ll drive yourself bananas and/or these little bitty gifts will end up in the trash.
Christmas Advent Calendar Charm Bracelet
Currently $19.99 on Amazon (prices on Amazon frequently fluctuate though) with a $2 coupon. Your child opens a paper calendar with a bracelet chain on the first day and receives a charm to go on the bracelet each day following. I bought this one for my now 10 year old last year and she LOVED it. There’s currently a second charm bracelet available that I’m debating on for this year. This Mouttop Advent Calendar Made with Pandora DIY Beads Charms Bracelet for Kids Christmas Jewelry Box is cute too.

ULTA 12 Days of Beauty
I bought this one for my oldest daughter last year. ULTA offers a 12 Days of Beauty calendar with all sorts of makeup goodies. Today on Cyber Monday, it’s only $10.80 (regularly $18). Plus there’s a $10/$50 coupon on the site with the code CYBERMON18.
There are plenty of great 12 Days of Socks options too! Although, most of them are over $25. However, I think ALDI might have a couple in the next two weeks for less than $15. So keep your eyes peeled for that one.
