Last year we read
Jotham's Journey during the month of December. It was our first time to read an advent story and I think I got as much out of it as the kids did! As Christians it's our goal to re-focus our children's attention on our reason to celebrate Christmas- away from the stuff, and the shopping, and the stuff, and the Christmas movies, and the stuff... to the incarnation of Christ, His great humiliation by which He came to redeem those His Father would give Him.
This year we're reading
Bartholomew's Passage and absolutely loving it! The kids beg me to read more each day.
What are you doing in your families to help re-focus on the Savior this Christmas season? I love getting new ideas. In fact, I learned about these books from several of you last year. Thank you!
