Christmas

Christmas by Annette Whipple invites you to join Charlie and his sisters, Emily and Lou, as they celebrate this joyful holiday! Join in as they light their advent wreath, play with their nativity set, make Christmas cookies and treats, attend a Christmas Eve service, and open presents and stockings on Christmas morning.

Along the way, you'll learn all about this bright and merry celebration, including:

• The significance of advent
• The importance of the Christmas story
• The fun to be had decorating the Christmas tree
• The delicious food eaten and gifts exchanged on Christmas Day, and more!

The joy and excitement of this Christian observance are further enhanced with:

• Instructions to make your own Christmas tree ornaments
• A recipe to make delicious pretzel sticks
• A guide to build your own nativity scene

In this immersive exploration of Christmas, children join a practising family as they celebrate the true meaning of advent. Seen through the eyes of young children celebrating themselves, this is a simple and exciting way to introduce little ones to this special period.

In the Celebrations & Festivals series, you are invited into a family's celebrations as you explore the magic and excitement of religious and cultural festivals around the world.
