We are unboxing the Breyer Horse Unicorn Advent Calendar! Check out the beautiful collection of unicorns that we found in this year’s toy advent calendar. Definite spoilers ahead!
Evolution of the Advent Calendar
Back when I was a kid… advent calendars were a simple affair. The most common advent calendar that I can remember was a simple, flat calendar with a small piece of rather stale chocolate behind each door.
The times have certainly changed and advent calendars have taken on a life of their own. Incredibly popular with the kid crowd, toy advent calendars are a hot seller each and every holiday season. By the time the 24th of December rolls around, kids have a fun scene filled with LEGO or Playmobil or Breyer or insert-brand-here figures and props. They are a fun way to count down to Christmas and we have bought a bunch over the last few years.

Breyer Horse Advent Calendars
Every year Breyer comes out with a new toy calendar. These calendars typically feature the “Mini Whinnie” sized Breyer horses, which are 1:64 scale models. They are cute and compact – perfect for small boredom buster toys.
We picked up the 2022 Breyer Horse advent calendar. This year’s calendar is a unicorn theme!
It features 24 days of surprises with 15 unicorns. The other doors contain some mini accessories, including a fence, tack box, barn cat, grooming tools, trophy, blue ribbons, a pond, water tank, and a couple hay and alfalfa bales.
