Where does the custom of giving Advent calendars come from?
The idea of an Advent calendar is very simple in itself: every day until Christmas Eve you open a calendar window where you will find a surprise. The calendar usually has 24 doors or a window to open – for each day of December that precedes Christmas.
The tradition of Advent calendars dates back to the 1850s. Initially, they were simple – when you opened each window, there was a picture on the calendar with your own story to tell. Today, however, Advent calendars have become so popular that they are also made as a holiday gift for others to enjoy Christmas. So if you’re out of gift ideas, an advent calendar featuring socks is the way to go!
Why should you choose socks’ Advent calendar?
You can’t miss Christmas time without an Advent calendar! The Advent calendar including cozy socks is special because it is such a practical gift that everyone will enjoy. There isn’t anyone who doesn’t need socks! And when it comes to particularly nice and colorful socks, it’s even better.
What to keep an eye on when choosing an advent calendar?
When choosing an Advent calendar, be sure to consider the size of socks you want there!
If you want women, socks in sizes 36-40 are generally suitable, for men in sizes 40-45, and for children in sizes 23-26, 27-30 or 31-35.
If you want a sock calendar for your kids, be sure to consider whether it’s a calendar that goes to a girl or a boy, or both, so the elves also know which socks to put inside the calendar.
Special wishes should definitely be noted! For example, if you want candies hidden between the socks in the children’s calendar or something else in addition to the socks.
How to make an Advent calendar yourself?
Advent calendars are easy to make yourself, because you can put inside whatever your soul desires. Even put salt and pepper! But an advent calendar made of socks is still the best. This kind of advent calendar is especially a favorite of children, because there is nothing better than a self-made calendar. We also have a small example for you! Do it like this:
- The most important – socks!
Look for 12 pairs of socks at home or buy yourself 12 pairs of fierce Christmas socks.
- What else do you need for the advent calendar?
Look for nice clothespins and a string to hang socks on. You also need some candy or different kinds of sweets or whatever you would like to have in the Advent Calendar.
- Mark your days!
Add numbers to the socks that mark each day until Christmas Eve. Write the numbers on small pieces of paper or make small stickers, so you can add 24 numbers in total – 1 number for each sock.
- Add sweets or candy into the socks!
Add to your socks the candy or gifts you like, which the elves put inside the calendar every day.
And so you have a practical and great Advent calendar ready, where you can get one sock and sweets hidden inside the sock every day!
