ADVENT STICKS ARE BACK!

Don’t be like the 20 people from as far away as Dandenong Ranges that contacted me last year wanting to buy an advent stick only to find that they had missed out.



ON SALE AT THE THURSDAY MARKET UNTIL THE END OF NOVEMBER.

ALSO ON SALE ON THE TARALEIGH STEINER KINDERGARTEN CRAFT STALL AT THE ROCK THE BOAT CONCERT.


$18



For those who don't know, these advent calendars are filled with treats a little more substantial than chocolate, holding items from nature or made from items from nature. They are beautiful to behold and children love them and find them very exciting.


Your advent stick is a beautiful way for your family to celebrate the lead up to Christmas. Each day you open one parcel to find a tiny treasure inside. You can let the child whose turn it is to open the parcel keep the treasure or you can put it onto a special table or collection point to build up your advent display. The idea is that you have ONE per family and that the children take turns in opening the parcels.



In the first week you will find that the items you discover inside the parcels represent the earth and are made from materials we get from the earth, such as glass, metal, and clay. In the second week you will find items that represent the plant world, such as seed pods, flowers, and bark. In the third week you will discover representations of animals or items made from materials we get from animals, such as bees wax and fleece. In the final week you will find representations of humans.
