"CHRISTMAS IS ABOUT JESUS - ADVENT FOR TODDLERS"
Written for ages 1-5 years, written with the intention to order be read alongside a nativity gift set.

The word Advent literally means, "the arrival of a notable person, thing, or event." Celebrating Advent at Christmas is one of the most intentional activities our family does in the month of December. We do this because more than anything, we want to create a Christ-centered Christmas for our children.

I have four small children of my own under 5 years old at the time of this creation and listing. One of my favorite traditions that we have begun is a nativity that we walk through piece by piece every year. I love retelling the story every night as a part of Advent and looking forward to the celebration of Jesus' birth.
This is where this book (and gift set) was born. I wrote down the stories in the way I tell them to my children as we bring out a new nativity figure every night. These are written with a 1-5 year old in mind. I literally pictured myself sitting with my 2 year olds, holding each figure, and telling them the stories of Jesus. I am so praying for you, that God would use these words to bring Jesus centered in your home and babies' hearts this Christmas.
