Advent calendars are a commonplace part of the holiday season, but the Warheads Countdown Calendar has been announced as a decidedly different update to the classic Christmas novelty product. The calendar features a total of 12 days of treats for kids to enjoy starting in mid-December in the lead-up to Christmas Day. The calendar works by having the kid or kid-at-heart open the corresponding door each day, which will reveal a serving of candy alongside fun activities to partake in.
The Warheads Countdown Calendar comes with three sour candy flavors including Watermelon, Green Apple and Blue Raspberry, and is priced between $3.99 and $4.99. The product is expected to be right at home within the brand's existing lineup of candy products.
