Advent Calendar Storybooks

This Advent Calendar Book Shares a Fun 'ChristMESS ADVENTure' for Kids

— November 8, 2018 — Life-Stages
The personalized 'ChristMESS ADVENTure' advent calendar book offers a highly interactive way for kids to count down the days in December and enjoy a healthy alternative to traditional chocolate-filled Christmas countdowns.

The personalized, interactive storybook is designed to give kids the chance to discover a daily surprise as they embark on a daily journey to save Christmas from The Mess Monster. On the pages of the book, kids will find plenty of peelable stickers and spots for kids to scribble on—with each scribble added contributing something more to the story. The advent calendar book for kids also includes tons of fun activities, such as word searches and spot-the-difference drawings.

While the majority of advent calendars for kids and adults alike are centered around consumption, this unique alternative helps kids celebrate the season through creation.
Trend Themes
1. Personalized Advent Calendars - There is an opportunity for companies to create other personalized advent calendars for different holidays or events.
2. Interactive Storytelling Books - Innovative companies can create more interactive storytelling books that involve peelable stickers and scribble spots to personalize the story.
3. Activity-based Countdowns - There is a potential market for activity-based countdowns that focus on creating and fun activities rather than just consumption.
Industry Implications
1. Children’s Book Publishers - Children's book publishers have an opportunity to create more personalized and interactive storybooks that incorporate fun activities and allow for personalization.
2. Advent Calendar Manufacturers - Advent calendar manufacturers can consider creating more interactive, personalized options that do not rely solely on consumption to celebrate holidays.
3. Creative Activity Companies - Companies that specialize in crafting and creative activities can develop more holiday countdown products that focus on interactive activities and personalized storylines.
