I thought, when I opened mine to do the review, “Why would you give the tools before the work bench???” And then that little fellow is busy before he FINALLY gets a helper

Your review is why I got this; I almost went for the other new one with the snowman & the trippy trees.  :D

Advent Calendar update. Day 5 (yesterday) was a tool box for the tools, & a C-clamp for the table. Day 6 is a writing & reading desk - maybe for Santa? I placed it near Santa's mail.

WHOOPS! I made a BIG mistake & opened up day 7 a day early. Day 6 (yesterday) was actually SANTA CLAUS (!), along with a letter, an ink well & a feather quill. The desk, meant for today, is now equipped.

No I think you got it right, desk first and then Santa with his stuff. Playmobil is the one who made the mistake on this one. Its like buying a fridge, stove, dishwasher etc and then the house. Not the most logical approach.

Whoever was in charge of matching the items to days is an idiot! This whole calendar has made no sense, the tools before the tool box and work bench... the elf made the scooter before having the bench... Santa and the letter and ink well came before the desk... it only gets worse! That poor elf has to do a lot of work before he gets any help!

Day 11 is a chute/slide for the toy workshop, an actual piece to match the illustrated ones. The elf is happy to use it for his own fun.

Advent calendar Day 15. Look! A beautifully wrapped package has come down the toy chute. What could be inside? Oh! It's a doll for a lucky little girl. The elves put the package back together & they & Santa get back to work. Only 9 days left until Christmas Eve!

8 days before Santa's big night, the head reindeer has arrived at Santa's workshop to join the reindeer games in preparation for their Christmas Eve journey. The elves & Santa are glad to see him. Now Santa must see that his sleigh is ready for the trip!

On Day 17, there are some treats for the reindeer to snack on after their games. The elves enjoy feeding their friends.

Things are getting busy at the workshop, so Santa has brought in another elf to help on Day 18. Everyone makes their new mate feel right at home.

On Day 19 a toy sail boat joined the pile of gifts the elves have been busy making. Suddenly Santa announced, "Time to test the toys!" The elves like this part of the job best of all.

1 more day until Christmas Eve! A final present arrives, this one for Santa! It's an ornament for his sleigh. "It's lovely!" said Santa. "I'll put it on my sleigh tomorrow, & we'll be all ready for the big night!"

Our Advent calendar comes to an end. On Christmas Eve, Santa's sleigh arrives & it is quickly made ready. Santa puts on his new ornament for the sleigh, which is filled it with toys. The reindeer get a last snack before they begin their long flight across the world. The elves are all happy & jolly, for Christmas is tomorrow! "Merry Christmas! " they sing out loud to Santa.

"Merry Christmas to all!" says Santa Claus, his cheeks merry & bright. "Merry Christmas to all, & to all a good night!"

A Merry Christmas to all my friends on Playmofriends & beyond. Thanks for sharing Advent with me. God bless us, everyone.  <*)  :rudy:  :elf:  :wave:
