While we love the annual LEGO Advent Calendars, we understand they can be a bit cost prohibitive. Starting at $30 a pop, that can quickly add up if you want to purchase for more than one child. So for those of you out there that want to allow your children some advent fun without breaking the bank, LEGO has kindly created a series of LEGO Classic advent calendar builds using the LEGO Classic boxes. All you need is one box for a ton of rebuild fun.
Where to Buy a LEGO Classic Box

Don’t have a LEGO Classic box? Here are a two options (with affiliate links) for you to choose from:
If you purchase a box and find you don’t have the exact same bricks or colors as in the instructions, have your kids use what they have and give the daily build their own personal, magical holiday twist!
Now on to the builds!
LEGO Classic Advent Calendar Builds
Now, I’ve updated this post for 2020. When I originally created this post back in 2016, I had the first 10 days of the advent calendar added for this post. I never got around to adding the other 14 days. Then when I had The Great Backup Debacle of 2018, I lost all of the images and PDF files I had uploaded for the first 10 days.
I spent a few days scouring the internet in order to try and find those images and instructions where I could. Some I found images and PDFs – others I found as videos… and even others, I just didn’t find at all… only the photos. Fortunately for us, most of those are fairly easy to recreate by looking at the photo.
Hopefully, you’ll still find this post useful for building your own advent calendar builds.
