Advent · from 1 December

Fill an advent calendar with finger puppets

Behind one of the doors waits a little character that joins in straight away: finger puppets from The Puppet Company, Folkmanis and other brands fit into a small bag and last longer than the chocolate.

Time left until 1 December

Finger puppets for your advent calendar

An advent calendar with finger puppets grows with every door that hides a character: by Christmas Eve, single characters have become a small cast that children use to make up and continue their own stories.

Not every door needs a character

Many families put a finger puppet behind each Sunday or every fourth door and fill the rest with small treats. That keeps the calendar affordable, and every character gets its own entrance.

A story that grows day by day

The calendar works particularly well when the characters belong together: first a fox, then a rabbit, later an owl, all living in the same wood. With every new character, the story carries on.

An advent calendar for the nursery group

At nursery, a different child opens the door on each nursery day. The new finger puppet greets the group at circle time and then stays in the play corner. By the end of Advent, the group has a whole cast for finger rhymes and songs.
