Christmas is a magical time. This year, make it more magical than ever with the Ugears Harry Potter™ Advent Calendar. The excitement and adventure grow each day, starting December 1st as you open the first of 24 windows, revealing an envelope containing wooden parts and instructions. Connect the parts together to build a figurine or other special item from the universe of Harry Potter™, created by J.K. Rowling, then display them on the enchanting box, hang them on the Christmas tree, or play with them as your collection grows throughout the month.
Models in the Harry Potter™ Advent Calendar collection are made of attractive natural composite wood, and include figurines of Harry Potter™, Hermione Granger™ and Ronald Weasley™ that rotate on spinning gear platforms, as does the Goblet of Fire™. As you open the windows one by one you'll get to build iconic Harry Potter™ items, like spinning badges with the emblems of the Hogwarts™ School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and its four houses, Gryffindor™, Hufflepuff™, Ravenclaw™, and Slytherin™. These badges and many of the other items you will build are U-fidgets: fun little mechanical toys with spinning gears to keep small hands occupied. Assembly is fun and easy and can be accomplished in a few minutes.
Each DIY magical miniature model has its own movement to engage young minds and teach basic principles of mechanics. As an extra holiday decorating bonus, many models in the Harry Potter™ Advent Calendar collection have a hanging loop, making them perfect ornaments for the Christmas tree. Among these are a Golden Snitch™, Quidditch™ Beater Bats, Harry's Spellbook, Sorting Hat™, Gringotts™ Coins, Buckbeak™ hippogriff, Time-Turner, Platform 9 ¾™ sign, and a cute Hedwig™ owl. These and more are included in your Harry Potter™ Advent Calendar collection. As Christmas approaches your model collection and your children's excitement grow in tandem!
