I remember having them when I younger and I know he would love them. I can't find them anywhere though.Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02372173964500018887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774778021065181469.post-65264495570246933672009-12-04T22:01:29.846-06:002009-12-04T22:01:29.846-06:00I see these candy calendars around and wondered if...I see these candy calendars around and wondered if kids liked them, silly question I guess!

On my calendars, each day revealed a pretty little Christmas picture. Nice, but not chocolate!!<br /><br />I do, however, understand what you mean about the "oldtime" chocolate. I get the same longing when the Easter Bunny leaves all those cute little hollow chocolate bunnies for the kids, but none for me! Darn! Kids have all the luck!Mellodeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07515414035373189099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774778021065181469.post-66763518948288843532009-12-04T08:45:31.557-06:002009-12-04T08:45:31.557-06:00I remember buying those advent calendars for my ch...I remember buying those advent calendars for my children and I must have encouraged them to "share" the chocolate with me, because I can remember how it tasted too. The idea of having your own Advent "stash" is a great one that never occurred to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774778021065181469.post-20846513676472847982009-12-04T08:32:54.393-06:002009-12-04T08:32:54.393-06:00I used to buy advent calendars from the German Clu...I used to buy advent calendars from the German Club when I was teaching and the kids used to forget and then "catch up" by going on a chocolate high...this year, they each wrote up a "good deed" calendar (I wrote Christophers)and every day they do the thing listed and color in the box on the calendar.<br />It was their CCD teachers idea and it's working great so far...Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05168564511635773943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774778021065181469.post-26217503577718055742009-12-04T08:31:44.476-06:002009-12-04T08:31:44.476-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05168564511635773943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774778021065181469.post-47294873176476632942009-12-04T07:44:41.494-06:002009-12-04T07:44:41.494-06:00I had many advent calendars as a kid but they neve...I had many advent calendars as a kid but they never involved chocolate. I bet my mother ate them all. We also had a little calendar with a mouse you moved from day to day - I remember fighting with my brother and sister over whose turn it was to move the mouse one spot closer to Christmas.<br /><br />I Dove chocolate is far superior so you get the best of both worlds - enjoying your chocolate while watching your kids enjoy theirs because they aren't old enough to know the difference in cocoa quality yet!Call Me Catehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15144735845209334875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774778021065181469.post-26099495497202207122009-12-04T07:31:53.749-06:002009-12-04T07:31:53.749-06:00Advent calendars are so much fun, but that Dove ch...Advent calendars are so much fun, but that Dove chocolate is way better than the stuff behind the little doors.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17616743301445727869noreply@blogger.com
