What can be better than snuggling up with your children on the couch or in bed to read a good book? This year we have decided to do something new to keep our boys heart on the real meaning of Christmas. Yes, they still want everything they see, but we want them to know why we celebrate Christmas. We want them to know who it is all about! JESUS! We want them to experience God's love. I know it is hard for children (young) to understand, but this is how we have decided to emphasis Christ during this time of year in the lives of our children.
We will be wrapping up books that are Christ centered and each night one of the boys will unwrap a book and we will read it as a family. This will be our QUALITY family time/bed time story. I am excited about it because my boys love books and gifts. In a way they act as both!
So here is a list of books that we have already and very few were purchased this year. I am including after this list a FREE PRINTABLE. It will have a picture of the cover of the book, title and author. I have done this so if you are interested in picking up or ordering online you have them all right in front of you. I have included some videos as well if you want to slip in a surprise and make it a movie night!

Monica...what a great list of books to read during Christmas time. My children are teenagers but we still read books together during this time of the year. Though our books have moved to much more longer and in depth books. :o) If you want, share you post today at my link up so others can see your list. Have a blessed week dear friend.
ReplyDeleteMonica,
ReplyDeleteThis list stirs up delightful memories of full laps and full hearts. We have a teen and a tween now, so I'm more likely to be listening to them reading stories to younger cousins or the occasional baby being sat, but thankful for the luscious rememberings.
Peace and good to you and those dear to you this season. I'm so glad I found you at Cornerstone Confessions.
Your list is AMAZING! I'm going to pin it with a link to your site!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome idea! Love the books btw! Our kids are 23, 21 and 17 (and a 26 year old son-in-law), but Christmas just brings out the kid in all of us! We have our 25 days of Christmas where we do something pertaining to Christmas every day. On Christmas morning, no one opens a gift until we all sit around the Christmas tree and read the story of Jesus' birth from the Book of Matthew. Your children are blessed and will cherish these memories all their lives! Thanks for sharing and thanks for being a mommy who creates memories for her babies! Have a blessed week! Dropping by from "Winsome Wednesday" link-up.

Hi there :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog awhile back now. You wrote asking about how my brother Joel is doing. He's not doing well now, and may only have 4-5 months to live...depending on how his chemo goes. I've been wanting to write about it more on my blog, but haven't had the right words as of yet. I hope to do that sometime soon.
I love your book a day idea for your kids during Advent. That is so sweet! It is really wonderful to get out the Christmas books - I love them!
Blessings to you dear sister,
Melody
Monica friend....just dropping by to wish you a very merry and joy-filled Christmas. Chat with you in the new year. Blessings to you and yours.
