Follow the story of Mary and Joseph's journey to Bethlehem, their search for a room at the inn and discovery of the humble stable, and the blessed birth of the Christ Child. Behind each of the twenty-four windows in this unusual Advent calendar lies a picture illustrating one step in the Holy Family's story, along with text on the inside of the window describing the event. The Journey to Bethlehem Advent Calendar is a wonderful way for families to celebrate the miracle of Christmas amid the hustle and bustle of holiday preparations.

Wonderful Advent Calendar

I love this advent calendar because the pictures are beautiful and it tells the Christmas Story in text as well. Definitely a good one!
My only problem is that the doors rip off easily if you are not careful.
Minor problem.

One of my favorite Advent calendars!

We will do out best to keep and re-use this one next year, because the images are so beautiful. Each window opens (in order, so they're not hard to find), sharing the story of the Christmas Narrative.
It doesn't give a bunch of small biblical quotes that point towards Christmas, but tells one long story, beginning with Caesar Augustus demanding the whole world to be taxed. That very sentence takes about 4 windows to complete, but the next window is a complete sentence of its own.
The pictures in each window are gorgeously vivid (and we're barely half way through), little worlds all to themselves - just the way an Advent calendar ought to be!
It certainly helps keep "The Reason for the season" in perspective. And I don't think it's going to mention or show Jesus until the 24th (we've had a dozen over the years that mention Jesus by day 5, showing him already in the manger, which is kind of missing the point!)

These get a lot if use at out house. After years if use our last one wore out. This one arrived promptly after ordering and in perfect condition. I added a heavy piece of cardboard to to back of it for sturdiness hoping to help it survive the years of constant Christmas use it will get. Beautiful pictures, nice and child friendly story, plus it looks nice wherever you hang it.
