6 Amazing Advent Resources For Kids!
Advent is the season when we wait and prepare for the arrival of Jesus on Christmas Day! It begins four Sundays before Christmas, and ends on Christmas Day. Often in church we mark these Sundays with scripture reading from the Gospels and the lighting of candles on an Advent Wreath. We can celebrate advent in our Kids Ministries and even at home, too! Here are 6 great resources to help you celebrate with kids!
This Felt Advent Wreath is perfect for younger kids and situations where you’d rather not involve candles + fire. We loved this in our Kids Ministry large group setting, and in our preschool rooms at church. Add the velcro candles each Sunday leading up to Christmas!
These Advent Cards for Little Hearts are the perfect way to celebrate with even the littlest kids (PreK). Each beautiful card has a scripture verse and explanation to guide you through the season and help your family focus on the true meaning of Christmas.
This sweet Little People Nativity set is the perfect addition to your Christmas Decor with littles! Kids will love being able to use the figurines to act out the Christmas story. You can even wait until Christmas Day to set out the baby Jesus in the manger, to remind them that he is the greatest gift of all!
The Giving Manger is a great resource + activity for families – it reminds us of the true meaning of the season and about the importance of serving others. It comes with everything you need to encourage your family to spread kindness and serve others this season – a book, manger, straw pieces, and baby Jesus figurine.
These Advent Blocks are a great tradition to start with your family. This 25 Day journey includes a guide to read each day and number cubes to turn to reveal corresponding images. You’ll be counting down the days until the King Comes! This is a great way to help your family anticipate Jesus year after year.
