There are so many ways to celebrate this amazing season
with a focus on the miracle that is Christmas.
While we enjoy a variety of activities that center on Christ during the Christmas season,
it is sometimes the 'simpliest' ways that create the best memories for our family.
A few of these that we enjoy are:
reading the Christmas story found in Luke 2 on Christmas morning,
learning and singing Christmas carols that are Christ centered,
having a Nativity scene just for playing,
and putting on a family Nativity play.
What are your favorite ways to
celebrate the gift of Jesus at Christmas?
We attend Christmas Eve service as a family, which I really look forward! Since my husband is a minister, it is rare that we can all sit & worship together.
ReplyDeleteWe have a wooden nativity set that is out for the girls to play with - actually it stays out year round.
This year we found "The Donkey's Song" in board book form which has been a wonderful way to talk about Jesus' birth.
We bake cookies & treats together too!
Merry Christmas!
