Advent 2021, Day 1: Blake & Holly Belle

 Daddy John: Blake, Gregoropolis's #1 Harry Potter fan, is over the moon about this year's advent calendar.  Alas, someone else is less enthralled...

Blake: Yes, yes, yes, yes, oh YES!
Holly Belle: Hmph.  At least it's better than last year's dreadful race cars.
I really must insist that Daddies take me along when shopping for next year's calendar.

Daddy John: This year we have got Lego!  
Harry Potter: Journey to Hogwarts.

Blake: Here's the first door!  I wonder what's inside?!
Holly Belle: Hmph.

Holly Belle: Well, what is it?
Blake: Looks like the signpost for Harry's address, Privet Drive!

Holly Belle: Hmph.  Well, it was thoughtful of the Lego people to mark out 
where it goes on the play map.

We're off and running!  Here's hoping this keeps the kids occupied 'til Christmas!

Whew this one is mine!!! I would love to have this calendar, too - and all the RoRoPo-kids, also!
But we don't and so we are happy to have a look each day so we can see here what's inside the little doors.
Very impressive how Blake has prepared himself for this special calendar...

Harry Potter is unisex Holly Belle , so the Daddies did improve from drag racing! Or were you hoping for Fashion to the stars or some such? Might be a bit hard on the boys, although our Valentine would love it!

Looks good to me, I hope they can wait and not decide to open them all at once!
