As a parent, it is important for me to teach my kids the true meaning of Christmas. While we talk about Jesus being the true meaning of Christmas and we read the bible to show the kids, sometimes, it is nice to have something for the kids to write and look at on their level. This is where Heather Bowen and her “My Christmas Wish: A Devotional Prayer Journal for Kids“, come in.
So what is My Christmas Wish: A Devotional Prayer Journal for Kids? This devotional is a fifteen day journal that will help restate what you have been teaching them. How does this Christmas journal help reiterate what you have been teaching your children? Over the 15 days of this journal, you and your children will read scripture, pray, games, puzzles, journaling, crafts, baking and even service projects.
I mentioned that one of the ways your children will be learning about the true meaning of Christmas, is through journaling. Heather uses an acronym WISH (write, investigate, share and hear). For example, on the first day, the kids will write ways they can obey, they will look up scripture to investigate more, they will share with someone what they have learned and then will hear more from scripture when a parent reads to them.
My Christmas Wish: A Devotional Prayer Journal for Kids is a 69 page devotional that is written for ages 4-12. However, it can be adapted for any age. I found myself enjoying reading the journal. While I haven’t started using this with my kids just yet, I am truly excited to have found a fun way to help the kids understand even more, the true meaning of Christmas. I am looking forward to digging more into scripture, sharing with my children and learning with them ways to not only for us to focus more on Jesus during this Christmas season, but learning ways of sharing with others, the true meaning of Christmas.
