Dec 2nd...the day after the first chocolate

 This year, in honour of my hubby's love of Kinder Chocolate, we went to the obvious choice - the Kinder Advent Calendar.

After the first chocolate on day #1 yesterday, I realized that Advent Calendar's actually help to enforce an important concept of teaching patience to a young child (and hubby).  The first chocolate was a small, round Kinder chocolate ball but that was enough to set up the anticipation for the month to come :)
