About this deal
Wooden advent calendars have been gaining in popularity of late: for starters, they look brilliant and come in an array of different styles and shapes, from trains to Santa sleighs, so they're a great way to decorate the house for Christmas. The Works has a whole range of well-priced kids' advent calendars - from The Gruffalo to Disney Princess.
Following a discussion with the Association of Ukrainians in Great Britain, we have set up a dedicated helpline for anyone needing support after fleeing the conflict in Ukraine.
The personalised advent calendar lets parents record their baby's December movements and milestones, and it makes a gorgeous gift for anyone expecting around the festive season. When shopping for the best advent calendars for babies look out for advent calendars with wooden toys, or musical advent calendars, which will delight young children, and avoid potential choking hazards. This advent calendar has garnered an average of 4.8 out of five stars, which is pretty impressive. One happy shopper says this is the "perfect gift for my granddaughter's advent calendar". Barnardo’s recognises that the affected children and adults need continued support during this time of stress and uncertainty, so they can navigate the new challenges they now face as refugees. We work directly with displaced children and families to support their recovery from the crushing mental health impact of this crisis, as well as providing practical help so they can get established in the U.K. There is a selection of stories inside, including Peppa's Theatre Trip, Peppa Plays Football, Pedro's Pirate Treasure, Peppa Goes Swimming, Miss Rabbit's Day Off, George's Noisy Dinosaur, Tooth Fairy, and many more.
Parents also like that they don't have to have sweets or chocolate in them; wooden advent calendars can be filled with whatever you like. Since they're wooden, they're also reusable, which can save you money down the line from not having to buy disposable advent calendars every year. Many shoppers hailed this a "brilliant" advent calendar, and a welcome alternative to chocolate filled creations. This is more an advent calendar to gift for parents than babies, but it is a lovely illustrated memento of your baby's first Christmas, and one the whole family can benefit from, so it's a win win.

Wooden advent calendars can also help minimise waste, since you'll be using the same one from one Christmas to the next. All profits made from Barnardo’s online shop help us to fund much-needed services for children and families fleeing conflict.
