I created a simple little coloring book for the kiddos this year. I really wanted very basic Christmas themed pages for them to doodle on. My oldest can use her fine markers and add details if she'd like, my middle can take the individual pages and use glue to add glitter galore, while the youngest can use chunky crayons and color away happily! They are versatile for everyone :)
You are welcome to pick and choose the pages you'd like to print or print off the entire thing for a full set of holiday themed coloring pages.
Here are some of my kiddos favorite coloring tools and materials for coloring pages!
PS If your printer takes thicker paper my daughter really enjoys me printing pages like this on multi-media paper and then she can use watercolor, artist pencils, etc to color them in!
ENJOY!

The ADVENTure
I love the idea of spreading out the message of Christmas throughout all of December. Christmas is a big thing in America, but typically the message you see is about presents and buying things. I have a different message for our kids. The message of Christ being born for them. So I decided to take the everyday sights and sounds of Christmas and find ways that we could use them to point back to the true meaning of Christmas. For our advent we use a Christmas tree. Ours is a small table top faux tree that goes in our nook. This is where we bring the elf into our Holiday Season too. Each day he brings a small item for their tree and a verse that is tied to various themes.
Here is an example of what my advent cards look like! They have a theme and a verse to tie our holiday traditions back to Jesus. I usually read the verse and then we talk about it before we do our activity, read our book or hang our new ornament, etc.
I'm challenging you to help your holidays be more than just a time of buying and giving presents, but to find ways to point your kids back to Jesus throughout all of your holiday traditions!
