The countdown to the festive season has begun with savvy shoppers already stashing Christmas pressies and stocking stuffers to pace their Christmas spending and ensure a stress free holiday season.
To get the family in the mood for all of the excitement of the season, a daily treat is the perfect way to get ready for Santa’s visit.
Whether you are looking for some additional goodies to stuff the stockings of the tiny tots in your life or you are looking for a little silly season indulgence for yourself, let’s talk Advent Calendars.
This year there is something for everyone at every price point.
Aldi Advent treats for kids
A lovely way to countdown to Santa’s visit is to share a daily surprise with some of the most well known brands.
Aldi Special buys have a range of advent calendars at $3.99 including much loved favourites including Frozen, Paw Patrol, Hot Wheels and Peppa Pig.
At $6.99 the illusive Elf on a Shelf 24 day advent calendar includes figurines and lollies for some holiday antics.
One of my favourite of the Aldi range of Advent calendars is the story book collections including Disney Princesses and Marvel (yes with Hulk, Ironman and the whole avengers universe).

Feel Good Look Good
The Body Shop believes the true wonder of Christmas is in its power to transform lives and create a fairer world. That’s why each of their Advent Calendars is a celebration of most loved Community Fair Trade partners and is packed with goodies that have been made or enriched by them. Community Fair Trade is The Body Shop’s bespoke program that helps its small-hold producers gain market access and invest in social and environmental projects that benefit their communities. Beside the delicious and luxurious products the packaging is designed so once you’ve unboxed all your treats, the pop-ups in these calendars can be upcycled as gifts tags and decorations.

Box of Wonders $180 (valued at $270) 25 full-sized favourites to help you buff, slather and nourish head-to-toe with my favourite the Avocado Body Scrub perfect for summer smooth skin

I have friends who do not receive many presents at Christmas and often spoil themselves with one of these premium beauty advent calendars. To get into the spirit of Christmas the 25 day countdown full of daily indulgent surprises is a lovely way to bring the festive glow, both in spirit and dazzling summer skin.
