My wife makes up a Christmas advent calendar for my daughter every year.

This year she put a lindor chocolate ball in every door.

Is it a big deal? I’m trying to teach my 13 yo daughter healthy habits and how to make better decisions for herself.

In my opinion starting your day for 25 days in a row with 80 calories of sugar and saturated fat *on top* of the normal treats of a day is a bad idea.

Should I put my foot down and replace the 25 lindor balls with something else or am I being a grinch?

My sister in Germany puts little toys and keepsakes in each one of the doors/stockings for advent. It’s not necessary to use chocolates or candies as tiny gifts can be just as exciting but with better health results. 30 days can form a habit.
