Advent Day 8
Open a New Christmas Ornament
Opening a new ornament is by far one of the kiddos' favorite Advent activities. I try really hard to find something that represents them for the year or that they would really enjoy. Thankfully enough they all loved them this year!
Elyse: coffee (girl is obsessed with Starbucks right now)
Caleb: Bugs Bunny Space Jam (loves Bugs Bunny and playing Legacy basketball)
Kallen: video game controller (self-explanatory)
Ian: lion and art (Ian was the only one I struggled with and I originally found the cheap $3 lion one and thought he was kind of creepy, so I then came across an art one with his name that I thought he'd really enjoy. Well, he did love the art one, but also enjoyed the lion, so for just this year, I let the lucky kid get two.
Maddie: unicorn floaty (the girl can't get enough of rainbows, unicorns, and swimming)

Advent Day 6
Watch "A Charlie Brown's Christmas" in the Van
Today's activity was an annual one, with a twist. Caleb had a basketball game tonight about 30 minutes away, so we weren't going to have time to do an Advent before we left or after we got home. So we took it on the road with us. The kiddos got to watch one of our favorites, "A Charlie Brown's Christmas", while Dad and I listened right along.

Today the kids had to work together to solve the riddles and follow the clues until they found their prize of $1.00.

Advent Day 4
Watch "A Chosen Christmas"
Our family's favorite series right now is, "The Chosen". It's a series based on the life of Jesus and his twelve disciples. It is so well written and enjoyable. Therefore, when we discovered the birth of Jesus was going to be played at the movies by the same actors/director we couldn't miss the opportunity. The video was really well done, plus the hour of worship artists praising God in song and words was just as enjoyable.
