Adult advent calendars

Who doesn’t love an advent calendar? I mean, we were brought up to love them … from childhood, right through to adulthood!

I adore Christmas and I know lots of adults who launch themselves into the festivities with gusto. And yes, we do get excited about the first of December and the much-anticipated Christmas countdown. So, what better way to mark it, than with our very own advent calendar?

But I’m not talking about your average Joe kids’ calendar. I mean the real deal. A calendar that gives generously with a gift you actually want …. EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Here are ten brilliant advent calendars for 2022 that will have you jumping out of bed to open a door every morning between now and Christmas.

The Christmas countdown begins …

Final word on adult advent calendars

In a world of adulting and grown-up responsibilities, these adult advent calendars remind us that being a kid at heart is timeless. From steamy surprises to tea sips, they’re not just calendars; they’re daily doses of holiday cheer.

I like to think of them as daily happiness deliveries. So, whether you’re unwrapping adult toys or trying a new brew, pampering yourself or sprinkling some holiday magic, there’s a calendar with your name on it.

This holiday season, let’s forget the adulting for a moment and embrace the kid within us, one quirky surprise at a time. No matter how old we get, these calendars remind us that the festive spirit lives on.

Here’s to a joyful countdown to Christmas that makes us all feel like excited kids again!
