One More Christmas Post

I recently read a wonderful perspective on Santa Claus. I think this is a great way to break the news to your kids and let them in on the magic of Saint Nick! You can read it here.

This series is super fun and we're looking forward to all the things we will learn about God's Story!

Advent Celebrations!

We are celebrating and learning about Advent together with your children at Mosaic.

If you are looking for ways to celebrate Advent with your family at home this year, Here are a few ideas:

One of my favorites is The Jesse Tree which I posted about last year.

I also came across a great family devotional here. It has references included so that you can use it with The Jesus Storybook Bible. Our favorite!

Also, Misha has posted tons of links and ideas here. So check them out!

And, you can watch this video together, straight out of the Jesus Storybook Bible.

Enjoy!

A fantastic way to give

I read a post today over here that I think is a FABULOUS idea families can use to give on the go. They make "sock lunches" to keep in their car and hand out to the homeless when they are out together as a family. What a great opportunity to share with your kids the importance of beautifying others and living a sent life!

Go check it out!

The Big Picture Story Bible

I have an item for your Christmas list to Grandma!

In January, we will be starting a lovely new series at Mosaic kids.

We're going to go through this book:

which I highly recommend for every household.

We're also taking some of the ideas from the lessons from here.
