Day by Day to Christmas 2018
No time of year is more exciting for children than the weeks and days leading up to Christmas. Now Absolutely Advent! can give them a new understanding of what the expectation and excitement, the celebration and joy are all about.
A page a day ─ December 2 through December 24 plus a bonus day for Christmas ─ provides young readers with a paraphrase or quote from the day's Gospel, a brief exploration about what that message means for them today, and a game, puzzle, or activity to reinforce the learning.
In the primary edition, Levi the Lamb returns for another year with his adventures in verse. The intermediate edition highlights Jesus' family tree - the Jesse Tree - from Adam and Eve through King David and Solomon to Mary and Joseph. The teen edition features daily Scripture reflections, journaling, and an activity connecting the Scripture to teens' lives - plus weekly "Green" Christmas activities focused on protecting God's creation. (32 pages, 6" x 9")
