Product Description
This impressive German advent calendar is extra large at almost 18" round! The Nisse and his rabbit friend sit atop a hill looking out over the snow covered village on Christmas eve. As the villagers sleep by cozy candlelight, his Nisse friends work hard delivering packages. The windows on this advent calendar circle round the perimeter like a clock face leaving the middle scene to be enjoyed all season.
The detailed picture has 24 little doors to open. Each door has a little picture behind it. The tradition is to open one door each day from December 1 thru December 24. Children love to open a door a day as they count down to Christmas.
