The LEGO Advent calendars are now available! I’ve purchased many of the sets the past few years – mostly the LEGO City, LEGO Star Wars and LEGO Harry Potter sets. A few years ago, I started adding LEGO Friends to our collection. It’s only the beginning of September, but my kids have already taken a look and are deciding the sets they would like this year. They will be harder to find in November!

Up until a few years ago, I had no idea that these Lego Advent sets were even a thing, let alone there are multiple sets. Now I’ve purchased multiple calendars each year. One year, I bought three of them. I’m definitely holding back this year, however they have released a brand new Disney set! I was secretly hoping my daughter would go for that set, but she’s leaning towards the Friends set because of the animals.

My son loves LEGO. He also loves Star Wars, Harry Potter and Marvel! My daughter will be doing the LEGO Friends Advent calendar again this year. My son is 13 and he’s also excited to have one of these sets to open in December. I think he may be leaning towards Star Wars or Harry Potter. He’s a little more indecisive.

In the past, I’ve kept them a secret from my son. During the pandemic, he stood over my shoulder as I ordered. So much for secrets! I now have him go through the website to make sure he likes the set I’m ordering for him.

More than 5 years ago, I purchased the LEGO City and the Harry Potter advent calendars and I have zero regrets. Many of the sets have characters or pieces you won’t find in other LEGO sets. For the past few years, my daughter has received the LEGO Friends sets. With the release of the new LEGO Disney advent calendar this year, I thought for sure that she’d prefer that one, but she spotted the cat (and the cat tree) in the Friends set, so that’s what we’re ordering! The LEGO versions are an excellent addition to my son’s LEGO collection, and he likes pulling Star Wars sets from years past.

Also, the characters don’t repeat each year! I really thought that the Harry Potter was a one-off the first year we got it, but the following year I realized that they are different every year.

I think these advent calendars are definitely worth the purchase! 

Do you have any of these sets? Have you purchased them in the past? What are your thoughts on these?
