Last year we purchased the box set of "What God Wants for Christmas" by FamilyLife. I posted about it on the old forum and wanted to share about it again.

This is an amazing Christmas devotional tool. Planned carefully and ahead of time can be used for Advent devotionals. If not, just bought and used on the spot it is amazing.

Here is the link for it:

Basically you walk through a series of giftboxes, which when opened create the nativity scene but none of that is what God wants for Christmas. What God really wants for Christmas is........

and when you open that last box it contains a mirror. The kids (I use this not only at home, but in our preschool room for the entire season of advent) when they look in that last box are amazed. I cannot sing enough praises about this product.

They also have available party sets (which if you are creative enough, and have a printer don't need to purchase the additional party materials).

This sounds very cool, JeanineAnne. Thanks for sharing. I'll be considering this. I'm always *wanting* to do something for Advent, but it just never happens. Or I start, but we fail to carry through. Or I see something that looks good, but never manage to get the money together to purchase it in time Argh! ongoing saga LOL
Maybe just maybe...this time.....

That is so sweet. I enjoyed listening to the audio clips about it too. I may try to get this not only for my own kids, but to share with other kids in my local homeschool group. Thanks for sharing! :)

I cry everytime I do the last gift ....

Thanks Jeanine! ~Kerri
