My 9 year old daughter is not into Hatchinals at all but she loved this set. She thought the animals were really cute and she loved the little nests that she could put the critters in.

There were a few days that had these little props that she could decorate but they were difficult to decorate since the stickers were SO tiny but that was my only complaint. I am not sure I would order this for her again but she really liked it. I thought it was a bit expensive for what she really got as a set at the end..... but Inpaid for the name?

My daughter absolutely loves Hatchimals. The calendar was well worth the price . My daughter loved the accessories and the Hatchimals that came in the set. 6 full sized Hatchimals and 9 Hatchimal pets and the accessories. Haven't put the little cardboard peice together but looks like they will hold up pretty sturdy thick. I loved what we gotten out of it so far i actually found a calendar from 2019 and purchased it. Any girl who is crazy about Hatchimals will absolutely love this.

Got this as a early Christmas gift for my daughter. She loved getting up every morning to open the next one and play on the alittle winter wonderland scene with it. Super cute and everything stayed in place in package. My daughter was very happy with it. Great for any little girl who loves Hatchimals

My daughter loves the holiday season, particularly the countdown to Christmas! In past years we have used a variety of different Advent calendars. This year we decided to combine two of her favorite things - the countdown to Christmas and Hatchimals!

When I first saw this Advent calendar, I knew it would be coming home with us! My six-year-old is obsessed with Hatchimals, and she will be especially impressed that this set includes accessories and a play scene for her Hatchimals.

The cover of this set opens to create a landscape for your Hatchimals, along with displaying the countdown doors. On the landscape, there are flaps that can be lifted up to add snowmen, trees, and a bridge to your scenes. Each of the numbered doors on the outside of the calendar corresponds to the day it should be opened. She will punch open the perforated #1 door on December 1st, and then the #24 door on Christmas Eve. The doors are not resealable, so this set isn't meant to be reused year after year.

Throughout the month, she will open up doors that contain one of the following - five glittery nests, an assortment of stand up decorations (trees, snowmen, fireplace, and gifts) with stickers to decorate, little accessories for your Hatchimals (sleds, bow ties, and gifts for them to hold, seven regular Hatchimals, two twin bobble head Hatchimals, and one surprise Hatchimal inside a blue and snow-speckled egg.

I am posting my review before she has had a chance to open it so that others may be able to make a decision about getting this before December 1st. But I will definitely update my review if we've got anything to add after she opens it! All of the pieces included seem to match the quality of our other well-loved Hatchimals, and I can't imagine anything happening that would change our opinion of this five-star review!

It was a big hit with the kids, good variety, builds anticipation like a good Advent calendar should. On a given day you will get either a Hatchimal that is NOT in an egg (9 days), a nest (5 days), or a craft set with buildable scenery and stickers to decorate it (5 days), or tiny accessories for the characters to wear or hold (5 days), and on the 24th day you get a special Winter egg with an extra-special Hatchimal inside. There is no 25th day so it ends on Christmas Eve if you open one-a-day in December. The order is done well, it rotates among the different types of things so you don't go too many days in a row without getting a new Hatchimal character. The two red and green foxes are made differently than the other Hatchimals; they feel like cheaper plastic and are kind of bobble-headed (kind of a fun surprise). Each nest gets a bow (sometimes on a different day) but the kids were disappointed on the days they got nests (I guess nests are not so fun). The crafts were cute and fun to decorate, but they instantly fell apart after assembling... impossible to play with (glue is needed to hold them together). The special egg on the last day had all the anticipation the wow factor needed to end the set. The product we received was in-tact and did not appear to be missing any pieces. Conclusion: while there are improvements they could make for next year, I would still recommend this set, just be aware of what you are paying for, you can see the items clearly or just watch an unboxing video before you buy.
