The Little Advent Fairy is an adorable Christmas character who arrives on the first day of event. The elf on the shelf never visited our home. So instead of watching out for mischief and naughtiness, our Christmas visitor encouraged kindness, smiles and little moments of magic.

If you’ve been searching for an alternative to Elf on the Shelf, you might be looking for something that still brings the excitement of a Christmas or Advent visitor, but without the focus on naughty behaviour.

The Little Advent Fairy brings a different message. She doesn’t watch to catch children being naughty. She doesn’t report back to Santa/Father Christmas.

Instead she arrives to spread kindness, create smiles and encourage little acts of joy throughout the Christmas season.

December is a joyful time but it has also become a month of expectations, busy schedules and pressure. The Little Advent Fairy offers a gentle reminder that the smallest things and just a little bit of magic can create big smiles.
