Quaint and festive Date: July 30, 2009
These elves are truly a kick. I purchased one last year and decided to wait until my youngest was a bit older before starting the tradition. Needless to say, we will be putting it up this year because I can't wait any longer! It's adorable and very well made, so I expect to have it for many years to come.

Advent Boy Elf Date: December 9, 2009
This if one of the finest advent calendars I have ever seen.The quality and workmanship are well worth the price.I bought the girl last year for my daughter only because the boy was already "sold out".I promised my son this year I would buy the boy for him, which I did even though it was a different design. I kept the girl up all through the year. I do not feel this is not one of those seasonal items which get discarded after the holiday because it is not done in the traditional
Christmas colors. My son did not get to see his this year because he left for his heavenly journey in January 2009, but I kept my promise to him and the boy is now hanging in my living room where he will remain throughout the year.This particular elf is very special to me because he has two day 12 pockets and no day five. I do not consider this to be a defect. Garnet Hill does not make defective merchandise, but rather I feel it is a message from my son who loved the story of the "Misfit Toys". I would not trade this elf for anything.It will be cherished as message of love and promises kept.

Absolutely the cutest! Date: November 30, 2009
LOVED, LOVED these advent elves! Quality is superb and my grandchildren (boy-8 and girl-3) were immediately enchanted! Fun shopping for the little gifts for each pocket then I wrapped them so little presents are sticking out everywhere. They can't wait until December 1 so they can start removing. This is one of those keepsake gifts that they will use and love for years to come and- since the quality is so good- may use for their own children someday! Thank you!

Such fun! Date: October 21, 2009
I bought the girl elf for my two daughters. It is just fabulous! It doesn't have a pocket for Christmas day which our old advent calendar had. My 8 year old always received something from Santa in the 25. This year Santa will just have to leave it on the floor next to the elf. Worth the high price tag!

Brings the Spirt of the Holidays Date: July 22, 2009
I have two of the pixie's. One of them is used for the Christmas holiday. The other one (with heart pockets) is used for Valentine Day. My daughter loves to search for the day and dig into the pockets. The pockets are small: this is great because small notes, poems or gifts fit easily into them (and not to overwhelm a child with presents before the big day).

I saw this advent elf at my sister's house, and ordered it immediately. The elf is even cuter than in the picture. The pockets are a great size for holding candy, or the small ornaments sold by Garnet Hill. A great complement to any Christmas decor

AMAZING! Date: December 31, 2008
I have never written a review on any item that I have ever purchased, but I just had to with this item. It is just the most adorable calendar out there. I would give this a perfect 10, it is made very well and it is so big. I have taken down all my Christmas decorations but I just can't bring myself to put this guy away yet. My grandson enjoyed him so much this year he is 6, this will be enjoyed for many years and handed down to the next generation. Don't hesitate for one second on getting this item, you won't be disappointed.

You should buy this!!! Date: December 14, 2008
I bought the boy elf three years ago and my kids look forward to seeing him every year. He has a cloth loop on the back of his neck for easy hanging, is very long and has a wide assortment of different size pockets, as well as hooks. He is long, sturdy and absolutely adorable. I highly recommend this for anyone

I tried to purchase an Advent calendar elf last year, but they were out of stock. I ordered one early this year, for my grandchildren. I was not disappointed! And neither will they be! The elf is precious! I cannot wait until my granddaughter, age 4, sees this and begins opening the Advent treats.

Cute and practical advent calendar Date: November 29, 2008
I purchased one for my family and later one for my sister becauseI love the look and quality of this advent caledar so much. It's as tall as a 5 year old and has pockets as well as loops for each number so you have the option of putting something inside the pocket or if it's too large hang it from a loop. The girl has the number 24 on the back though as far as I remember, so that might be the only negative. These cute pixies have a sturdy fabric hook on the back for hanging also. Overall - excellent purchase!

Perfect Advent calendar Date: November 22, 2008
I just received the elf and the trinkets. It is wonderful. The quality merits 7 stars. I ordered the boy since I have four grandsons. My four year old guy whom I had it sent to was very excited when he got it. He is solid and very well made. 59 inches is big. He is heavy and sturdy both important considerations with boys.. "Elfie" (his official name) has already helped us with counting and the trinkets have provided us with hours of arranging and re-arranging treasures in all the pockets. I am hoping you have a different fabric next year so I can get another for his new baby brother. It would be nice if they were a little different each year, but even if it is the same I will definately get another one. This will become a family heirloom .

I absolutly love this Elf! I attached small gift bags or small tissue paper wrapped presents with ribbon every morning and my son just loved waking up everyday to see what the "elf" brought! He would talk about it to his friends and they too loved the idea! My niece stayed the night and of course the elf came for her too! Great product that brings joy to the children and is just a wonderful item to count down to christmas!

We have been using an Advent Calendar for the last seven years as a build up to the special day. My son gets so excited in the morning to find out what's inside that we don't have to coax him out of bed like the other 11 months of the year. This one is great since you can place things in the pockets and have a little sneak preview of any oversized items inside!

I bought one of each and they are marvelous! We put different kinds of candy canes in each pocket and then settle into a habit of hot coco and a shared candy cane every evening as we count the days down. I can't wait to pull them out again next Christmas!

I bought the girl advent doll for my granddaughter last fall and loved it! The quality is wonderful and it is so cute. The pockets vary in size to hold different sized gifts. I couldn't get more then, as they were sold out, but was able to purchase a boy and girl early this fall. The boy is just as adorable. My grandchildren love them! These are a lifetime gift!

I love these elves! I bought them last year to hang on my children's doors. The smaller pockets are pretty small, large enough for candy, a couple toy army men,lip gloss, etc. The two larger pockets are big enough for a deck of cards, maybe a small video game. I put small Kelly Barbies, Bakugan's, Pokemon cards...my kids favorite items. There are also little tabs on each day to hang IOU's, little cards...so you don't have to buy anything if you don't want to! My kids love them, and they are very attractive! I have already recommended them for all my nieces and nephews!!!
