The idea came from my Sister Suzie, and I am so thankful for this little book. It is filled with 7 traditions to fill our home with the Spirit. Each tradition is based on one of the pieces of the Nativity.
We started this tradition this year doing 1 a night through Christmas Eve. Each night we learned about a different piece and then did an activity from what we learned. Then we would place the Nativity piece in out special nativity.
Some of the things we did were:
Take a family in need a special present, watched the Nativity, told stories of our Faith, and wrote down a goal we would like to accomplish this year to bring us closer to Christ.
I am so thankful that we did this tradition. Next year we are going to do it as a weekly activity so we have more time to ponder and not rush anything. I highly recommend doing this. It really brought the Christmas Spirit into our home and reminded us what it is about.
