{Review} My Christmas Wish List Devotional Prayer Journal for Kids

November 19, 2013 By: amyswanderingcomment

Girl writing a Christmas letter for Santa

Are you looking for a simple way to focus your child’s mind on what really matters this holiday season? I am so tickled about My Christmas Wish List, a devotional prayer journal created by Heather of Upside Down Homeschooling. The colors, the graphics, the layout … it makes me happy just to look at it!

The 15-day journal is divided into five sections: Obedience, Love, Joy, Charity, and Peace. Each day has scripture to read, a prayer prompt, and a fun activity that involves encouraging or serving others. The daily assignments follow a WISH acronym:
Write
Investigate
Share
Hear

There are extra activities at the end that include copywork, coloring pages and a nativity set to cut out. I consider this journal a gem because most of the devotionals I’ve found for younger ones are either very generic (same type of activity each day just with a different picture & verse), or too complicated for this easily-overwhelmed momma.

My Christmas Wish is on sale for only $2.99 (regularly $7.99)! Such a small price for the opportunity to point your child to Christ all December long.

As a BONUS,  purchases made in November will come with 2 FREE holiday webinars: 9 Stress Busters for the Holidays and The Wonder of God’s Love for Christmas

Are you looking for meaningful Thanksgiving activities? You might also be interested in My Book of Thanks, Heather’s Gratitude Journal for Kids. It is on sale for only $1.99 and comes in a younger & older version.

Celebrating Christmas in July

July 23, 2013 By: amyswanderingcomment

celebrating christmas in july

My mom’s birthday is on July 25th, so last year we threw her a Christmas in July party. It was so much fun!! My gears started turning as I cooked up a plan for this year…

We could use July 25th to try out some of the fun projects & recipes that we never find time for during December!!

I don’t know about yours, but my family likes to stick very closely to traditions. And since no one likes a stressed-out mommy, I try to limit how many new activities I add each year.

KISS –  Keep it Sweet & Simple, that’s my motto.

Christmas in July is the perfect time to try out some new ideas.

We are going to start our day with this yummy Cinnamon Baked French Toast that has been calling to me from my Pinterest Christmas Board.

{Note to self: set Pandora to a Christmas station!}

I am going to give each kid a Christmas Wish List so they can get a head start.

My kiddos like to toss in their 2 cents, so I created a Christmas to Remember survey for them to fill out so we can plan our holiday season.

After an appetizer dinner of sausage balls and fried mozzerella sticks, we will watch a movie and have a snowflake cutting party. The snowflakes will be carefully bagged up and put away to make a gorgeous blizzard garland. I have had it bookmarked for YEARS, and we have a snowflake party every December, but never manage to find time to put it all together. I’m thinking this might be the year we finally get it up. 😉

There are so many things you could do for Christmas in July:

  • get started on some handmade gifts
  • put together a Christmas Planning Binder
  • make Christmas cards
  • plan you Christmas card picture
  • get an early start on some crafts
  • play silly games

You can also take some time to think about getting off the Crazy Christmas wagon. Christmas is a season of joy and peace. A time to celebrate a Savior.
