The countdown to Christmas has begun. The first windows on advent calendars have started to open and Playmobil is producing a Santa figure every 18 seconds, or roughly, 4800 every 24 hours! And where are all these Playmobil Santa figures made? Not the North Pole , but rather Malta, an island nation known more perhaps for its warm than wintery weather.
Featuring 245,000 forest green LEGO Duplo bricks, 11,000 LED lights and 400 Christmas ornaments, the worlds largest Christmas tree has just been lit up at LEGOLAND California. Standing more than 30 feet tall, the Christmas tree will be on display in the Fun Town section of LEGOLAND California.

An advent calendar is one of the more interesting (and fun) ways to count down the days to December 25th. While waiting in anticipation for Christmas morning, it is nice to receive a few presents along the way. The three Advent Calendars from Playmobil can help you do just that, with each one featuring 24 different items, such as figures, animals and a backdrop. Priced at $19.99, the three advent calendars are, the Forest Winter Wonderland (pictured above), as well as:
Playmobil Advent Calendar – Princess Wedding
Playmobil Advent Calendar – Pirates Treasure Cove
