17 Christmas Advent Calendar Ideas

With the end of November approaching fast, it’s really time to start amping up for the countdown to Christmas with some advent calendar ideas.

As a kid, patiently waiting to open up the door on a Christmas advent calendar each morning was a huge treat, but this fun doesn’t have to stop at childhood. A small chocolate may be enough to keep a kid's interest each day, but there are also plenty of advent calendars that now cater specifically to adults, bringing nearly a month’s supply of things like beauty supplies, alcohol, desserts and other new surprises during the days of December.

These countdowns are a fun way to keep track of the days and prevent Christmas and any last-minute holiday shopping from sneaking up on you.
