Christmas tree building set advent calendar, 24 boxes, 1,100 pieces

About this product

Every numbered box in this set holds around 40 to 50 plastic blocks, so you build a little of the tree each day and finish it by Christmas Eve. The listing gives over 1,100 pieces in total, an instruction manual in every box and ABS as the material. The tree is green.

Once built, the tree measures about 12.7 x 12.7 x 32.5 cm, which is the listed 5 x 5 x 12.8 inches in centimetres, and it can be split into two smaller trees. LED lights are included, with steady, slow and flashing modes. The listing says they run without batteries but does not say how they are powered. The title gives ages 6 and over.

What to use it for

Open one box a day and add that day’s blocks to the tree, following the manual in the box. The finished tree is about 32.5 cm tall, so it sits on a table, shelf or desk.

Care and safety

Keep each day’s blocks in their own box until you build with them, so the pieces do not get mixed. Dust the finished tree with a dry cloth.
