Happy November, 3D puzzle enthusiasts! We're almost officially in Ugears favorite season! The days are shorter, the nights stretch out longer, and the air has a refreshing chill, all telling about the arrival of joyful holidays filled with beauty, magic, and twinkling lights. Truly, this is the season to celebrate!
Among the upcoming festivities is Christmas, which we absolutely LOVE! One of our favorite aspects of Christmas is..you guessed it! - Advent calendars. Let’s dive a bit into the background of these festive countdowns. The term 'Advent' comes from the Latin word 'coming.' These calendars have a fascinating history, originating in the 19th century when families would count down to Christmas Eve by marking the days on a chalk line throughout December.
Over the years, Advent calendars have evolved tremendously, catering to a variety of tastes. While traditional options like chocolate, toys, and cash remain top, the range has expanded dramatically! Nowadays, you can find calendars filled with everything from gourmet cheese and fine wine to craft beers, Lego sets, beloved Disney characters, and yes, even 3D puzzles! Therefore, we have a fun and festive DIY project you can do with your family: Ugears Road to Hogwarts™ Advent Calendar. It's the perfect addition to your family's holiday traditions and promises to sprinkle a little more magic into your days as we count down to Christmas.
Unwrap the magic daily
Instead of unwrapping a piece of chocolate daily, you’ll open 24 secret envelopes, each brimming with surprises! Inside, you’ll find game board pieces and figurines featuring characters from the beloved Harry Potter™ series.
Not only is the Ugears Road to Hogwarts™ Advent Calendar game a fantastic option for your holiday festivities, but it also:
Builds anticipation and excitement. Each day’s unveiling brings a sense of excitement and anticipation as you slowly complete the puzzle. It adds a special layer of enjoyment to the holiday countdown and makes the lead-up to Christmas even more magical.
Promotes family bonding. There’s something truly special about gathering around the table to solve puzzles. It encourages teamwork and communication while fostering happy memories and a sense of togetherness during the festive season.
Enhances cognitive skills. Engaging in puzzle-solving is a great way to improve cognitive abilities. As you solve them together, you can enhance skills like concentration, memory, and critical thinking. It’s a fun way to stimulate your mind during this busy time of year.
Isn’t that a fantastic twist on the classic Advent calendar?
A game for everyone
