5 out of 5 stars Great Lego set with 8 mini figures. Sons take turns opening each day. Watching their exceitement is awesome. New lego everyday !   December 5, 2008
Renita Henderson (FLOMATON, ALABAMA USA)
This is going to be a new tradition in our family. We love legos and to get a new set each day is awesome. Well worth the price since you get 8 mini figures.
My sons take turns opening each day to find a new lego set to put together. Number 1 was a mini figure with at turkey leg. They love it. Even though they play with legos together, I let them keep what they find on their day and it is such fun watching them open them. The one who is only watching gets just as excited as the one doing the opening. I even heard them discussing swapping chores if they could swap mini figures.

5 out of 5 stars A new Lego every day for 24 days.   November 24, 2008

I've been purchasing Lego Advent Calendars for my daughter for 5 years now. She loves opening the door every day to see what small item she is going to get to build. The Calendars in the past few years have changed to have a lot more people and less little items to build. It's fun to create your own little scene with all the items that you get once all the doors have been opened. If this year is like past years (we haven't opened any doors yet because Dec. 1st is a week away yet), the instructions for putting the project together is printed on the flap of the door that you open. This is a great way for kids (and adults that love Legos too) to countdown the days to the Holiday. It's like having 24 little presents. Can't wait to start opening doors next week!


5 out of 5 stars Month-long fun!   November 24, 2008

My son looks forward to receiving the Lego Advent Calendar for his birthday (11/26) every year. All of his friends were jealous when they saw this come out of his birthday bag. It is a great present for kids of all ages.

This product is great for a lego lover. My 5 year old son sometimes has a hard time with the big lego's and I end up putting them together for him, but this was easy for him and he ended up putting them all together in one day.
