Transform your family's Christmas season with this heartwarming 24-day Advent journey that brings the nativity story to life while building beautiful traditions of kindness.
The Manger: A Christmas Advent Book is designed to be read one day at a time, starting December 1st and ending on Christmas Eve. Each day reveals another part of the beloved Christmas story—from God’s plan in heaven to the shepherds’ joyful discovery—while engaging children with meaningful kindness challenges.
As your family reads each day’s story, children complete simple acts of kindness suggested in the daily challenges. For every kind deed performed, they add a piece of hay to a small manger, gradually creating a soft, comfortable bed for baby Jesus throughout the month.
Christmas Eve Finale:
After 24 days of stories and kindness, place a small figure of baby Jesus in the cozy bed your family has lovingly prepared together through your acts of love and service.
