Truth in the Tinsel Day 3

Today we learned about Zechariah. We learned the angel Gabriel visited him to announce his wife would have a baby, a son named John.

Winter Themed Sensory Bins

It's been awhile since I put seasonal themed activities together for Emma. I decided it was time.

Yesterday,  I made a felt Christmas tree with ornaments and presents. $3.50 and enough felt for 2 with lots of extra felt for later. I made one for a friend too.

I also made a snow themed bin using cotton ball snow, cinnamon scented pine cones,  glittery snowflake ornaments,  and the snow lady she loves. $3 for everything except the snow lady since we already had that. We have plenty of extra materials for other activities later too.

What holiday and seasonal activities are you doing?

Truth in the Tinsel Day 2

Truth in the Tinsel Day 2: Jesus is King & a snowflake craft

Today Emma learned that Jesus is King.  We did a Bible study from Isaiah,  then made our crown craft. After Bible study time, she checked her advent calendar and found stickers, glitter, & a wooden snowflake. She painted her snowflake with glue then covered it with glitter. This will be a gift she gives on Christmas.
