My World Advent Calendar - visit 24 countries, explore different cultures, create original Arts & Crafts from each country! Ages 9+ Includes a Printed Guide. Ages 9+

I bought this for my 11yo son as an advent calendar. Each day is a craft project about a foreign country. So far he’s done 8 days and each project has been interesting and creative. An accompanying booklet provides educational info about each days project and there’s also a QR code for each project to access video instructions. What I really like is that each day is organized into its own envelope with the relevant country’s name and flag on it and pretty much all the materials you need for each project are included in the envelopes. So my son is able to do this on his own without coming to me asking for paper etc. It comes with the materials you need. Highly recommend for any kids who like exploring other countries!

Super fun and educational! Love how it’s set up, adorable envelopes with the country flag on them and everything you need to complete each craft. Would buy again.

We loved the My World Advent Calendar! It was a fun, educational way to explore global cultures with our child. That said, there’s a significant inaccuracy on Day 8: Ukraine is shown with Matryoshka dolls and the word “babushka”—both of which are Russian. In Ukrainian, the correct word for grandma is “babusya”, and the traditional handmade guardian doll is the Motanka. Given Ukraine’s ongoing war to protect its identity, this isn’t a small mix-up—it really matters. I contacted the company but received no reply. Hopefully, the 2025 edition now being sold has corrected this. Overall, it’s a beautiful, inspiring calendar—just hoping every culture is portrayed accurately.

This has been so fun this Advent season. The packaging is fun and engaging. The size of each craft and supplies make it great value for the money.

I really enjoyed this. The gifts are quite well done, with lots of info and learning for kids. It made for fun projects.

The booklet that explains the days is poor. The descriptions aren’t always accurate (Ukraine babuska doll day had a duplicate of Fiji fan) and the text is aimed at a much lower age than implied on the box— better for 5-8. No description of the craft is in the booklet — you have to follow a web link for those. The materials are otherwise good quality.

I love this- we homeschool and this is part of our art curriculum for this semester. It teaches about cultures and different geographical locations. Highly recommend this!

This product is not user friendly at all. There are instruction videos on each project, but the materials dont work as intended. For example, the paint was all dried out, and not usable. The cardboard would not stay glued together, etc. Additionally, aside from the daily instructuon videos for the actual art projects, there are no directions. At all. For example, it comes with a map, flag stickers, dot stickers, amd passport stickers, but no directions on what to do with them. There is no apparent place to use the flag stickers.... there is not room in the passport to place them there. I have no clue what the dot stickers are for. It says there is a calendar, but where is the calendar? Its just so confusing. And definitely over priced given that half the materials didnt work, and I had to use my own paint, markers, etc. It looks fun on the website, but its more frustrating than anything else. My kids and I are very disappointed with this product.

Love this item - great quality and the passport, map and crafts keep both children and adults interested. Would love if it was a little more Christmas focused as we are using it as an advent calendar but also works just as an interesting daily activity any time of year.

Really good advent calendar with 24 projects to do for all the different countries plus a map and a passport to complete with stickers. My son loved opening it every day and we completed the craft activities together with instructions from the online code. Would really recommend.

Trop bien comme dit ma fille !!!

Calendario dell'avvento fiverso dai soliti. Adatto per gli amanti delle bandiere e del mondo. Il calendario arriva suddiviso in 24 buste raffiguranti le varie bandiere del mondo e all'interno di ogni bustina c'e' tutto l'occorrente per realizzare un lavoretto tipico di quello stato. Le istruzioni si reperiscono attraverso un qr code presente su ogni busta,che ti reindirizza ad un video senza parole ,ma utile per lo svolgimento del lavoretto. Unica nota per me negativa, avrei preferito ritrovare le curiosita' in merito alla cultura del paese,all'interno della bustina, oppure stampate singolarmente, perche' il fascicoletto che viene fornito, scopre da subito quali saranno i 24 lavoretti, togliendo l'effetto sorpresa. Tutto e' riportato in inglese

Love this Advent/Count down calendar. So far I’m into day 5 and the quality of the crafts is surprising. Great activities to be shared with family. Two thumbs up and five stars.
