The Best Advent Calenders for 2010: Lego Learning Toys

An Advent calendar is a tradition celebrated in many families as the season of Advent approaches Christmas

. There are a number of secular Advent calendars on the market and a few are designed to attract and entertain both kids and adults. In this review we look at the range of Lego Advent Calenders available for 2010 to count down the last 24 days before Christmas.

Lego is one of the world's biggest toy brands and with good reason. It has been in operation for over 60 years and continues to build durable toys that engage kids of all ages, and more than a few adults as well!

Lego first began making Advent calendars in 1998 with a singular generic set. In 2010 they have a number of more specialised options available. There are two specific releases for this year, The City Advent Calendar (set 2824) and the Kingdoms Advent Calendar (

The City Advent Calendar is priced at $34.99 and includes a calendar with 24 windows for each day of Advent. Behind each window is a small minifigure or model. Included in this set are 6 minifigures and small micro-models to build including a Christmas tree, fireplace and a number of small micro-toy replicas including a plane, helicopter, fire engine and Santa's train set.

The Kingdoms Advent Calendar (set 7952) is also $34.99 but looks to be much better value than the City themed one. It includes nine minifigures and other days are taken up with small micro-sets. The sets and figures include a catapult, a wizard, a dungeon, soldiers and a king and queen with throne as well as weapons and jewels.

Both are great fun and for a family who want to celebrate Advent with a mix of tradition and new fun then the Lego advent calendars will ensure kids take part in the celebrations.
