2nd December 2020

We hope you've opened the first window on your own Advent Calendar, and maybe even the second! This year Sarah has a Thorntons calendar, and Adam has a Reese's Peanut Butter Pieces one, which of course is healthy and provides one of his 5-a-day.

Every year we look out for the Lego and Playmobil calendars, as they are always a fun way to build up a scene (not always festive). But on the playmobil.co.uk website, Adam got a bit distracted by some of the other toys on offer.

The amazing "Teenie mit Longboard"

The confusing "Tramp and Prussian Soldier"

The classic fairytale of the Goose Maiden

And a contentious culture wars version of a "Traditional Family"


But of course, best of all, is the Nativity. Happy Wednesday!

I have a Reeses peanut butter cup advent calendar (along with a Toblerone one and a “real advent calendar”). I’m struggling to find Reeses Pieces in the UK - normally I stock up whenever I’m in the US but it seems like it may be a while before I’m there again... Heather

Hello! We've sort of lost count, but think the first Advent Calendar was back in 2003, the Internet Archive Wayback Machine says it looked like this: Of course all the links are dead, but the thing it has in common with this year's is that it is still coded in HTML, probably the last thing I will ever rely on coding for. Now it looks like this: Happy Advent! We have gone for the Bonne Maman JAM Calendar again this year, after leaving it too late last year and it selling out at both Fenwick and Selfridges! We get a fresh pot of jam every day to enjoy with our tartines and Ovomaltines. We also have the Domino's "Merry Crustmas" leaflet, and a MUJI calendar we'll show you later in the month. Do let us know what you are opening every day! You can leave a message below, or email us your ideas and suggestions for future days at robotmaths@outlook.com Have a great day!
