Kids Advent Calendars Bring Holiday Cheer

For children, the count down until Christmas can be just as exciting as the holiday itself. An Advent calendar can help your child keep track of the days, reminding them that Christmas is just around the corner.

At Pottery Barn Kids, we carry a selection of kids Advent calendars that double as cheerful holiday decor at the same time. They feature 25 pockets--for December 1st to December 25th--where you can tuck away small gifts, tasty treats or sweet messages for your child to open on each day. It's a fun way to make the holiday season leading up to Christmas a little more eventful.

Types of Advent Calendars

Our Advent calendars for kids come in two main designs so that you can choose how you prefer to display them. Some are intended to be mounted on the wall, which allows you to save space and to hang the calendar somewhere your child can easily access it. For wall calendars, the mounting hardware is included. Others are freestanding and can be placed on a tabletop, mantel or just about anywhere you would like to put it.

Wherever you choose to display your freestanding or hanging advent calendar, it is sure to make a lovely addition to your holiday decor, especially when paired with ornaments and trim in similar styles.

Festive and Charming Designs

Part of what makes kids Advent calendars so fun is their whimsical designs. Your child will love the look of our calendars with holiday motifs and iconic Christmas characters. Choose from calendars featuring a jolly Santa Claus, a smiling snowman, friendly woodland creatures and more. Every design has a charming, handcrafted appeal bolstered by embroidered stitching and applique detail.

Each calendar is also crafted of supersoft and high-quality materials like cotton, polyester, polyester sherpa, velvet, linen or wool. This gives them a warm and cozy feel that's perfect for the holiday season.

A Personalized Holiday Keepsake

Even better than an Advent calendar filled with all sorts of goodies is one with your child's name on it. Our calendars are available with added personalization that allows you to type in your child's name for an extra special touch. Your child can use the calendar year after year and continue to cherish it as they grow up. 

A Christmas countdown makes the entire holiday season more fun and exciting. This year, start a new tradition with one of the kids Advent calendars from Pottery Barn Kids. For when Christmas Day finally does come around, we also have a fantastic collection of Christmas stockings that you can fill with one last batch of holiday gifts and treats for your child to enjoy. They are sure to make a lot of happy memories, plus find stocking stuffer ideas for babies and kids.
