Read the story of the Angel coming to Mary in Luke 1. Talk about what the name of Jesus - Immanuel God with us means. Talk about the meaning of our own names. Read Philippians 2:10 together and discuss. Use the playdoh to spell out the name of Jesus.
Day 11: swedish fish candy and a cracker Jesus feeds the 5000
See how many times we can break the bread and fish. Read the story in Matthew 14, Luke 9, or John 6. Talk about what it might have looked like and note how everyone got enough to be full and not just tiny pieces.
Day 10: toy boat Jesus calms the storm (I found a tiny boat at the party store this year for a
dime but last year decorated a piece of mulch with a sharpie no joke)
Read the story in Matthew 8, Mark 4 or Luke 8 and talk about why this is so amazing. Make a storm in a bottle (with a liter bottle oil water and food coloring) with your toy boat or storm in the bathtub and try to calm it instantly, which cant be done.
Day 7: sample perfume or scented lotion Mary Magdalene and the perfume
(I did this one because Lily is obsessed with perfume... feel free to substitute) Read the story of Mary pouring the perfume on Jesus feet from John 12. Talk about how expensive this was back then and what a big deal it was for her to do it. Discuss some other things are important to us now and how we can give them as an offering to God.... time, money etc.
