We're gearing up for Christmas!
This month, I want to go lighter on the academics and focus more on God, Advent, and Christmas. I've been looking for the right thing to use as my resource and finally found it over the weekend: Truth in the Tinsel.
This ebook take you and your kids through 24 days of Bible reading and ornament making. It's perfect for someone like me who has little imagination when it comes to kid's crafts. Everything is laid out for me – the story, the craft, supply list, and extra ideas. I love Truth in the Tinsel!
I printed and spiral bound my book. I have most of my supplies gathered. I had most things floating around the house. I did have to buy some wiggly eyes and some glitter glue. I also had to buy flour for making salt dough – since the whole family eats gluten-free most of the time, I don't usually keep regular flour in the house. {That craft will have to be done without Jacob!}
I'm working on a homemade advent calendar. {I'll share next week when it's all done.} There are “clues” in the book for using with your own advent calendar.
My plan is to read the story and make the ornament during the day with the boys. Then, in the evenings when Daddy is home, we can review the story and talk about our ornament.
Want to join me? Go buy a copy of Truth in the Tinsel, gather your supplies, and prepare your advent calendar. The fun begins December 1! I'll continue to share each week in Kids in the Word Wednesdays, but for daily updates, follow me on Twitter or Facebook.
I'm so excited to make wonderful Christmas memories with my boys!
