Christmas in Denmark may not be like the consumer frenzy in the US, but it is still a significant event based on the fact that the stores are filled with Christmas paraphernalia, but it is more endearing paraphernalia.
One difference is the variety of advent calendars. There are the standard Christmas tree pictures, but there are also candy-filled calendars with pictures of Mickey Mouse, recent movie characters, and football/soccer logos.
I like the idea of having a candle that burns a little every day until Christmas.
I haven't quite figured out the stocking calendar. Maybe a little something goes in each day until Christmas, when it is completely full and waiting to be emptied. But does the kid have to wait and not peek for more than three weeks? That seems unrealistic.
