Arts and crafts play a huge part in our Christmas School. You really need to check out the fun we have, all outlined at Advent Idea Box. Every day of Advent, we study a new country and new traditions from around the world and all through history.
We study the origin of Christmas cards in England
We study Poland make our favorite Kolacky recipe.
We study Russia and The Nutcracker Suite and we make nutcrackers.
We study Germany and make edible Christmas trees.
We make most unappetizing gingerbread houses you've ever laid eyes on.
We try new crafts and new ideas and we revisit old favorites every year.
Our favorite traditional craft is our Jesse Tree. We decorate ornaments and memorize verses every year to help tell the gospel story, beginning with Creation.
