Advent Unit Study 2007
The Holidays are here! Creating a lapbook or notebook pages about the season of advent is a fun way to enjoy this special time of year!
Jesse Tree Resources
Jesse Tree Devotional and Printables - from Faith MagazineJesse Tree Calendar - Daily ideas for celebrating the advent season, with devotional.
Jesse Tree Coloring Book - The illustrations are, well.... not impressive. But it's a great idea! Maybe you could substitute your own images.
Jesse Tree Family Devotional - RCA Church resources
Jesus Tree - decorations and ornaments
Advent Crafts to Make and Do
Christmas Crafts, Booklets, Printables and Activities - Another fabulous collection of ideas from Enchanted LearningChristmas Crafts for Kids - Danielle's Place. Some free...some members only.
Printable Nativity scene - You can print the complete scene in B&W or color, or print each individual piece and have the kids build the nativity during advent.
Nativity Felt Board Set - You don't have to use it for a felt board, makes a great nativity set for any purpose!
Nativity Bookmarks - four bookmarks per page. (NIV)
Advent Calendars
ABC Advent Calendar - to color23 Day Advent Chain Calendar - complete with scripture verses. A neat idea! Link ONE and TWO
Christmas Countdown Chain - Great graphics. Link ONE and TWO
Christmas Countdown Wreath - Could use to count down to Christmas or as a nice holiday craft.
Online Advent Calendar - No peeking until December 2! Looks fun!
Advent Paper Chain - Preprinted with the days in December, leading up to Christmas.
2007 Advent Calendar Online - At TeachingMom.com
Santa or Tree Christmas Countdowns - From Childcareland.com (another awesome site with freebies and $$). I'm linking you to her main printable page. But scroll all the way down to the bottom for the Santa or Tree. Cute way to mark the days until Christmas! She has TONS of other great stuff on her website. I think she adds them in the order that she makes them (instead of by month/theme), so be sure to look further to find more Christmas/Winter printables she has available.
Christmas Book Studies
12 Days of Christmas lapbook resources - Links to pages and activities to study the meaning of the 12 Days of ChristmasNight Before Christmas - Lapbook/Unit Study resources
Tomi de Paola Curriculum - If you are a fan of Tomi de Paola, you'll probably really like this literature unit for Advent/Christmas using his books.
Gingerbread Baby Lapbook Unit Study - Homeschoolshare.com is an AWESOME site! (I think I've said it before, but it bears repeating.)
