In Germany we say: �Vorfreude ist die sch�nste Freude.� Which roughly translates to: �The greatest joy lies in the anticipation [rather than in the event itself].�
Perhaps that is why advent calendars are so popular in German-speaking regions. The tradition reaches all the way back to the early 19th century, but even today I can hardly name a family in my immediate surroundings that doesn�t have at least one advent calendar up on the walls; bursting with goodies and ready to be plundered by impatient offspring and well, adults just the same.
