No time of year is
more exciting for children than the
weeks and days leading up to
Christmas. Now Absolutely Advent!
can give them a new
understanding of what the
expectation and excitement, the
celebration and joy are all about.
Absolutely Advent! helps
children enter more fully into the
real spirit of this special Church
season − even as
they are distracted by Christmas
commercials, music, and decorations.
A page a day, November 30 through
December 24, provides young readers
with a paraphrase or quote from the
day's Gospel, a brief exploration
about what that message means for
them today, and a game, puzzle, or
activity to reinforce the learning.
In the primary edition, Levi the
Lamb returns for another year with
his adventures in verse. The Jesse
tree - a favorite Advent activity -
is a weekly feature in this year's
intermediate edition. It's a fun way
to learn about Jesus' ancestors and
the role they played in our
salvation history.
You'll want all children in your
program to have a copy of this
engaging new book. Deeply discounted
pricing is available for larger
quantities. |
