In the case of the Nativity scene, conceived by Saint Francis of Assisi in 1223 in Greccio, the intention was to communicate to the illiterate and ignorant people the great mystery<strong> of the Incarnation of Jesus<\/strong>, through the re-enactment of the Nativity scene, with its characters. The Advent Calendar was born with the same intention, but it is aimed, at least initially, at <strong>children<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Advent has always been one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/christmas\/advent-time\/\">most important moments of the year<\/a> for Catholics all over the world. Believers prepare for the coming of Christ, for the renewal of His miraculous birth, at Christmas. Advent is also the liturgical time when devotees reaffirm their hope, the wait for Jesus&#8217; second coming, the one that will establish the end of the world as we know it, the end of time. It is not easy to make the little ones understand the authentic meaning of this period and not even of the party that will come. It is easier to make them understand the importance of a unique holiday, which is renewed every year and brings families and faithful together like no other.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-article\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4059 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2023\/11\/Advent-time.jpg\" alt=\"Advent time\" width=\"150\" height=\"99\" data-kale-share-title=\"Advent Calendars: History and Tradition\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/?p=4046\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"leggi-anche\">Read more:<\/div>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/christmas\/advent-time\/\">Advent time<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nAdvent has always been one of the most important moments of the year for Catholics all over the world&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The mother of <strong>Gerhard Lang<\/strong>, Maulbronn&#8217;s future publisher, who invented the Advent Calendar at the end of the nineteenth century, must have thought of the need to feed this climate of waiting, to increase the expectation of the children of the house. In Germany, the custom was already widespread of hanging small Christmas-themed decorations on the walls or marking twenty-four dashes with chalk on the door, one for each day before Christmas, inviting the little ones to erase them as they approached the fateful date. Tired of hearing your child repeat the question every day: <em>&#8220;When is Christmas coming? How many days left?\u201d<\/em> Mrs Lang made 24 spicy cookies, sealed them in as many bags, and promised her son that he could open and eat one a day from 1 December until Christmas Eve. A very sweet thought, to accompany the days of waiting for the Feast and help the child understand its importance. In short, a DIY Advent Calendar was followed by many others in the following years.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-product\">\n<div class=\"blocco-immagine\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4061 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2023\/11\/Advent-Calendar-string-line.jpg\" alt=\"Advent Calendar string line\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" data-kale-share-title=\"Advent Calendars: History and Tradition\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/?p=4046\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-contenuto\">\n<div class=\"blocco-acquista\">Buy Now:<\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-titolo\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/christmas\/advent\/advent-calendar-string-line?_gl=1*11m6sdj*_gcl_aw*R0NMLjE2OTk4NjMyMjIuQ2owS0NRanc4cW1oQmhDbEFSSXNBTkF0Ym9mZ21KMm85dkV5S0JjLUdLUWIweWFCLU9EekR0N1ZQV2hnY1g4WW96M2haNGVTR0JkUjR1d2FBZzZrRUFMd193Y0I.*_gcl_au*MzQ2MTAxMTM4LjE2OTc4MDc3MzQ.*_ga*MjAyODIwNTUzOS4xNjgwNTA1OTc3*_ga_W18MV136NH*MTY5OTg4NzY4Ni4xNjQuMS4xNjk5ODkxMjk0LjAuMC4w\">Advent Calendar string line <\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-descrizione\">The calendar consists of 24 bags of fabric tied together with a cord&#8230;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>This custom invented by his mother influenced little Gerhard Lang to the point that, once he grew up and became a publisher, he decided to propose the same idea again by creating a cardboard support with 24 small windows, one for each day from 1 December to Christmas Eve, where you could hide cookies, candies, chocolates, or small gifts inside that children could discover day after day.
