I blogged before about the wonderful Advent calendars I purchased for Paige and Ben this year..instead of the annual 'chocolate' ones, I found these cool ones at Playmobil. Instead of a chocolate each day to Christmas, the kids get a piece of a 'set' until Christmas eve when the set is complete. Paiges is the 'forest animal' set with Santa being her toy on Christmas eve...Bens is the "Knights" set. I can't tell you how much fun they have every day with their sets. Each day when they get a new piece, they haul out all the other pieces and play. They've even come up with games where the forest animals and the knights play together. Right now, Bens knight is telling the forest animals that for a small fee he will keep them safe. So what if it sounds a little like the Sopranos...they are getting along..and as every mother knows, THAT is the whole point! ;)
Hugs to all,
Jaye
