Wow this was a super fun and engaging advent calander. We will be using this brand again next year.

I bought it to do with my 4 year old, but my 8 and 11 are very interested.

Gave this to my 10-year old daughter and it is a great, high quality advent calendar. I’m very impressed. Great for ages 10 and up in my opinion. Would present well as a gift.

Amazing value for money, great crafty gift. Creates a great time to bond daily making these crafts together. Thoroughly enjoyed by our entire family and the science one I'd also recommend

Great projects, easy to follow instructions, nothing takes too long to finish, and my daughter created some really adorable ornaments and other crafts.

The projects in this advent calendar are fun and easy to do, but many of them have parts and pieces missing or not enough product like yarn is given to actually complete the project.

Mom loves her crafty advent calendar and is having a great time assembling her Christmas crafts. Most of the directions are easy to follow.

It is worth pointing out that there is a note inside the main box letting you know the additional items required for these crafts. Do read it before the 1st December! Although it says a hot glue gun, I had no intention of purchasing one of these and we have found a standard tube of UHU type clear glue is perfectly adequate. We had all the other items already. As other reviewers have said, the instruction book does show the items for each day, but you can choose not to look ahead as each craft finishes on a double page and it is more fun to have a surprise!My daughter just turned 8 and has managed to do many of these by herself. We didn't do the melting plastic beads - she actually decided to make something else with the beads.We have found this a brilliant afterschool activity and I am very likely to get her another one next year. I think it is fantastic!

Overall, I was pretty happy with this purchase. My oldest daughter loves to do crafts so I thought this would be a lot of fun for her. At first she would wake up before school and be excited to open it and work on the project but if I am being honest, after the first maybe 5 days I would have to remind her to open the box each day and if I didn't help her, I would find the open box in her room either half way completed or not started at all. Some of the crafts were a little challenging for her - and she is a pretty crafty self-sufficient kid - there was one where she had to make a teddy bear and between the 2 of us we couldn't get it to look like the pictures - they include instructions, and pictures of the steps but to be honest the pictures were not super easy to follow so it did get a little frustrating. It would be SUPER helpful to have videos online walking you through each craft - this may not be possible, but just a suggestion that I think would've made it more doable for kids. Each box did contain mostly everything you needed for each craft which was nice, aside from things like scissors, markers, etc. We also chose to use a hot glue gun for several of the crafts because regular glue was not cutting it.Most of the crafts were super cute (or at least the ones that we completed) - it wasn't just like the normal beaded candy cane or popsicle stick Santa hat - definitely more unique crafts which I appreciated. Our favorite was the pom pom ball ornament - that came out SUPER cute.The one complaint my daughter had was she wishes the cover of the instruction book did not show pictures of all of the crafts - she likes to be surprised each day since it is an advent calendar - so she cleverly covered the book with glued on construction paper so she couldn't see what all of the projects were - easy fix but maybe something to consider.The boxes were sturdy and fun to open and overall it was a nice looking advent calendar.I also bought the science experiment calendar for my son by this same company and HANDS DOWN this calendar blew the science experiment one out of the water - the science was such a bust and a waste of money so if you are trying to decide between the 2 DEFINITELY go with this one. I originally had wanted the magic calendar also by the same company but it was sold out so TBD on that one.

It is a very neat calander with cool crafts but some are on the difficult side and require extra things they don't always give you. There are a few that require sewing, although they do give you to tools to do that. Overall its great, just more targeted for older kids.

I’ve copied the description of this product as well as the actual truth behind each bullet point they list.“This Christmas Arts & Crafts ADVENT CALENDAR will not only provide your kids a daily arts & crafts activity for each day of the 24 days before Christmas - it will also enrich your Christmas tree and Christmas table with a variety of 24 season ornaments proudly hand made by your kids.” - a few of the items were non-seasonal colors. For example, one of the items was a Pom ornament with all pink and purples. Would not have been ideal for a boy. The item made with a napkin came in a floral, spring looking print.“ENGAGING & INTRIGUING- 24 exciting arts & crafts creations for Christmas. Your kids will be super proud on Christmas day showing off their art!” - their art? HARDLY!! We will address this later on. However, my daughter did love the products and was happy to show them off.“HOURS & HOURS OF PLAY- A different creation is hidden in each box.” - I wouldn’t say hours. I was able to knock out several days of crafts in under an hour (more to come on this topic).“EASY TO DO - Includes all necessary components and a colorful manual with step-by-step and pic by pic instructions.” - FALSE ADVERTISEMENT! You need extra items for EVERY SINGLE PROJECT!!! Mainly, a hot glue gun. Nearly every project required a hot glue gun…which we did not have on hand. A couple require pine cones, and we were unable to locate ones we needed. Required a jar for one of the crafts, minimal sewing experience, etc.“FOR EVERYONE - Arts & Crafts creations are suitable for ages 6 and above without prior experience (although some adult supervision is required for selected activities depending on age and the specific creation at hand).” - my child loves crafting and is almost 8. She’s not been able to do even the bulk of the work on any of these projects. Several of the projects I had to complete 100% on my own while she watched with sad eyes because it was beyond her means to complete it.My child LOVED the idea of this box and is super crafty. She’s always making new projects out of old things, but this just was not the right kid. Not even half of the items you need are included and they are far too complex for ages 13 and under.

This is great. Cool crafts, nice materials. Day one creates a star ornament and everything you need is provided, you just add a baking sheet, liner paper or foil and your oven.It looks great and the crafts are nice, not too hard, not too boring.My daughter (11) and son (10) love it!Really pleased.Update: day 7 and my 6th grader still loves it. My 5th grader finds the craft instructions really hard to follow, lots (4/6) have not gone quite right for him and he’s pivoted to his own inventing, which is fine, but means the company might want to improve the instructions: he builds Lego Technik 14+ on his own!
