Christmas is full of wonder, but the greatest gift we can give our children is helping them see that the joy of the season begins with Jesus. In this post, I share ways to keep the focus on Him through storybooks, conversations, and classroom learning. You will also find a list of beautiful children’s books and simple literacy activities that bring the true meaning of Christmas to life.

The Children’s Advent Chain: A Countdown to Kindness
One of my favorite family traditions began when my kids were little, our Family Advent Chain. Each paper link held a simple act of kindness or gratitude that reminded us Christmas is about giving, not getting. Over the years, those acts have grown with my children, from hugs and thank-you notes to volunteering and serving others. This post shares how to create your own Advent Chain and make your Christmas countdown one of kindness, compassion, and connection.
