This is our first year to do Advent with the kiddos. Isabella is loving it and repeats the words and verses with me as I read them, usually shouting them:) We are using IF:equip Advent for our verses each night. We complete our activity, read the IF:Equip and the kiddos indulge in a dark chocolate. It has been so great and meaningful. Isabella is VERY excited to celebrate Jesus' birthday this year. I pray my kiddos really understand the meaning of Christmas and know the grace and joy His birth brings. Here is our list of activities this year, I am sure they won't be in this perfect order but these are our goals for this year. Most importantly I want them to understand the meaning and joy of Christmas.
