Christmas Homeschool Fun!

Celebrate Christmas with fun projects, books, and crafts! Here are two of my favorite things that I use to spice up my Homeschool Days that you will love!

1. Jotham's Journey by Ytreeide
This book is filled with adventure, devotions, and advent activities. This is my favorite book to read with my kids at Christmas time. The book even explains what advent is for those who did not grow up with this special way to celebrate the coming of Christ and Christmas.

Here is the summary from the back of the book:
Over and over Jotham Screamed for his family, but there was no one to hear him. They had vanished. He was alone. Where had they gone? How long ago did they leave? Through quick, stabbing sobs Jotham told himself, "I must look for my family. I must search until I find them." And so his journey began.
Jothams Journey is divided into short chapters for each day of Advent, giving families the opportunity to create a seasonal tradition of storytelling in their home. Ten-year-old Jotham's adventure takes him across Israel as he searches for his family. Though he faces thieves, robbers, and kidnappers, Jotham also encounters friendly wise men, shepherds, and innkeepers until at last he finds his way to his family- and to the Savior born in Bethlehem.

2. Make Paper Snowflakes
