Christmas/Advent Countdown

Grammy was kind enough to provide the boys with an Advent/Christmas countdown calendar.  It's a lovely music box that features Santa Claus and his elves dancing around.  Each day is numbered and contains a special treat like an Advent Calendar, but it really doesn't have anything to do with Little Baby Jesus.  That's ok.  It features St. Nicholas, so it still has some religiosity to it in a very strained way.

So far, Nicholas loves this thing because all the treats have been chocolate of some sort.  John has been very frustrated because he isn't a fan of just chocolate.  He likes sweets.  It's tough to be a four year old.
