    It seems like advent calendars are everywhere now (online at least). As a kid, I donโ€™t remember even knowing what an advent calendar was. In fact, I first remember really noticing them when I moved to Japan. I remember another English teacher talked about having her students make them for a cross-cultural activity, and I would see them in import shops where they were presented as an example of a western Christmas tradition. I remember just assuming that it was a British thing.

    But evidently thatโ€™s not the case. ๐Ÿ˜…

    Were advent calendars part of your Christmas tradition growing up?

        We had one every year growing up and we kids took turns opening the little flaps.

          @jon-nyc good point. I donโ€™t know that I could explain it if pressed. ๐Ÿ˜…
