For many years, advent calendars have been a traditional way to enjoy the run-up to Christmas, with a little door or window to open for each day, and a surprise behind it. When I was a child the surprise was a picture, but nowadays you can find all kinds of things behind those exciting windows. And what better to get a little dose of every day till Christmas, than LEGO?

If your child already loves LEGO then you'll need no persuading - this is a must-have Christmas gift that your whole family can enjoy as part of your holiday tradition. If you're not yet a LEGO family (where have you been??) then the LEGO Advent Calendar is a wonderful introduction, with a collection of small, easy-to assemble kits and mini-people to go along with them.
