Chocolate advent calendars aren't for everyone and I'm delighted to feature a fantastic alternative today that won't break the bank. The HARIBO Advent Calendar is currently available for just £7 via Amazon. The calendar is larger than the advent calendars we're used to and features 24 doors with a sweet treat behind each door. All of the treats are individually wrapped and many are Christmas themed. I love the Christmas scene featured on the front of this calendar and it certainly looks nice and inviting.
There's a good mix of treats inside and as we opened each door we enjoyed not knowing what was going to be behind each door - a range of treats rather than the same chocolate every day definitely adds to the countdown excitement! Here's a look at exactly what's inside (I won't ruin it and tell you which door they're all behind):
We love Haribo and I loved that some of the treats were Christmas themed whether this be a mini bag of Winter Wonderland themed sweets or a large reindeer shaped jelly.
There was even a Christmas Tree behind one door (I've taken it out of it's wrapper for this photo).
The Christmas themed treats were mixed with regular favourites including with my personal favourite - Maoam bars!
As my three were digging into this calendar I couldn't help but think it would be perfect for school teachers to use in their classrooms. Our school normally use chocolate calendars but I think this Haribo calendar is a lot less messy AND the children can keep the wrapped bag of sweets in their drawer until home time. Of course, these calendars aren't just for kids, Grown-ups will love them too and I must admit Steve and I did sneak a couple of doors open when the kids weren't looking. A daily dose of HARIBO in December will definitely keep me happy!
If you or your kids love HARIBO, this calendar won't disappoint and thanks to it's size and the range of treats included, I think it offers very good value for money.

Ooh I didn't realise you could get Haribo Advent calendars. It's a nice alternative to chocolate. Are Mums allowed them???
