Handmade Gnomes Countdown Calendar

This Halloween advent calendar is a hit for kids and adults alike. Each of the 24 little compartments hides a different mochi squishy toy, making the countdown to Halloween both exciting and interactive. The toys themselves are soft, colorful, and surprisingly durable—they stretch, squish, and bounce back without tearing. We have started to put them on the one window so everyone can see them as a decoration. They are the perfect size to not take up to much room.

I also appreciate that they’re made from safe, non-toxic materials, so I don’t worry about the animals around them. I only wish is came with a full month countdown instead of the shortened version.

This Halloween advent calendar was a lot of fun! There’s 24 doors with a variety of ghosties, no repeats. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the ghost giving two middle fingers, so if that’s not something you want the little ones to see, please use caution! An added bonus for me was that the ghosties have a little circle on top so you can use them as ornaments or maybe make a Halloween garland. I have a Halloween themed tree and the ghosties were exactly what it needed! These toys are around 1 1/2 inches I think, some bigger around then others. Not all of them can stand but that’s ok with me. This advent calendar is pretty reasonably priced as far as advent calendars go and if you have a loved one who likes Halloween and a bit spicy novelties, this would be the perfect gift, I definitely recommend!

This ghost advent calendar is cute and funny! Every little ghost has its own unique design, and they’re even cuter in person than I expected. It definitely adds a playful Halloween vibe. The quality is great!

This is such a fun concept for Halloween, and I really like all the little ghost figures. They’re a great size for ornaments on a Halloween tree. I do wish it had all 31 days instead of just 24, since it feels a little short for a full October countdown. A few of the figures are also a little hard to tell what they’re holding, and one of mine had a cheeky pose (which made me laugh, but might not be ideal if you’re buying this for kids). Overall, I think it’s a creative and festive surprise to open each day, and I’m excited to add the ghosts to my decorations every year.

I’m getting that a lot of these Halloween advent calendars are repurposed regular advent calendars. I keep waiting for someone to figure out that a Halloween countdown should actually have 31 items, not 24.

This advent calendar contains adorable little Halloween squishies. The squishies are standard size and quality, but some are a little large for their very small compartments. Still, they’re cute overall.

To address the questions Rufus presents: The included theme is Halloween. They can be used as party favors. The toys are reusable. This advent calendar is definitely for all ages.

TL;DR: Typically constructed “advent” calendar containing rubbery ghost ornaments, most of which are cute but one which is making a naughty gesture. The box can be opened easily without ruining the calendar to replace that one if desired.

Good:
• This “advent” calendar consists of a cardboard box inside which is a plastic tray containing 24 different rubbery ghost figures each about 2 inches tall. As with most advent calendars, you punch open one of the numbered cardboard doors each day to retrieve one of the toys inside.
• The ghosts are (almost) all very cute and fun. They are all different. Each has a loop on the top so you could hang them like an ornament.
• It is easy to remove the tray from the box without damaging the box, should you wish to remove or replace any of the ghosts with an alternate item (see below).

Not so good:
• One of the ghosts is making what may be referred to as a naughty gesture. (See the photos for details.) This might make this inappropriate for children. However, if you want to replace that one with something else, it is easy to do without ruining the rest of the box.

Be aware:
• These ghosts do not glow in the dark.
• This would not be appropriate for very young children as the ghosts may pose a choking hazard.

Final thoughts:
• I really like all the ghosts in the package except the one. I’m still on the fence about the whole idea of an “advent” calendar for Halloween, but I mostly just wanted the little ghosts and don’t plan to use it like a calendar anyway.

This Halloween advent calendar is simply lovely. Its fun design full of details such as ghosts makes it perfect to give a special and mysterious touch to the season. Each window awakens the excitement of discovering a daily surprise, turning the countdown into a magical experience. Ideal for children and adults who love the spirit of Halloween, it is an original and decorative detail that cannot be missed.

My daughter is going to love this Halloween ghost adventure calendar. She will be so excited to open one each day before Halloween.. There are 24 total ghost inside!!
