Miriam Follin 北欧米粒 | 2. Advent Calendars From Sweden: a Christmas Memory @MiriamFollin | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 1 hour ago
When it’s December, I always feel very excited waking up. Pirr i magen, butterflies. I think the reason is the advent calendars. Every December morning, for as far as I can remember, I woke up and rushed over to the calendars. I had one glittery one, that my cousin used to give me, one chocolate calendar, one from our church, sometimes other gifted ones, and of course the gift calendar. My grandmother made it for me, and every December there would be 24 little gifts. Chocolates, candies, colorful pens, rubber gums, and just tiny little gifts that my mum had prepared.
I don’t know if this is a tradition around the world for Christmas celebrations. Did you have this as a child? Advent calendars? Counting down the days for Christmas. Last year Sansan had four of them: the gift calendar I had as a child; a chocolate calendar, a Bamse calendar (with little story and crafts books) and a calendar he got from the local fire department.
