So what is a Christian advent calendar? How is it different from other chocolate advent calendars? And what’s the Real Advent Calendar? How is that different?
Don’t worry, we’ll answer all of these questions in this article, so you’ll be clued in on what advent calendar to buy for your young ones this festive season.
Christian Advent Calendars
Lots of our Christian advent calendars don’t contain any chocolate at all. Behind each door is a Bible verse or a section of the Christmas story. As you go through the month, you’ll see how events led up to the Lord Jesus Christ being born in a stable in Bethlehem. Christian Advent Calendars are fantastic for teaching children about nativity, and are a great lesson to teach, instilling strong Christian values from a young age.
The Real Advent Calendar
So what makes The Real Advent Calendar so special? Why is it so different from any other Christian (or Cadbury’s) advent calendar?
The key is that unlike most Christian advent calendars, The Real Advent Calendar has a lovely piece of Fair Trade chocolate to enjoy for each day in December. But that doesn’t mean it neglects the true meaning of Christmas and the story of the birth of Christ.
The Real Advent Calendar comes with a 24 page Christmas storybook. That’s right, one page a day for the month of December to tell the true story of Christmas. It’s a win win. The little ones get a small piece of Fair Trade chocolate to enjoy, but without it being an advert for a big chocolate company with no connection to what Christmas actually is.
With a full, 24 page activity book, children can interact and actively engage with the Christmas story, teaching in a way that’s tailored to how they learn at a young age. There’s plenty of space for much more detail than a traditional Christian advent calendar, cramming one sentence onto the back of a tiny door.
This unique advent calendar for Christians is a one of a kind. It’s the only advent calendar on the market that has Fair Trade chocolate, and a Christmas storybook. This unique blend of traditional and modern advent calendars is the perfect way to engage your children in faith and nativity without them feeling left out or bored with a more old school calendar.
