24 Days of Christmas: Day 1

Last year we did our first 24 Days of Christmas, filled will holiday crafts and gift making. We all really enjoyed it, so I thought we'd continue the tradition again this year. So...

Welcome to The 24 Days of Christmas: Cultural Edition


Day 1: Mexico


Today we started off by reading the book The Christmas Path: A Legend of the Luminarias

then we made our own...



Luminarias originated in Mexico and are Christmas candles that symbolically served to light the path of the shepherds to visit baby Jesus.


An easy first craft that only needs small candle, paper lunch bags and some sand/gravel. We used a star and snowflake punch around the edges too.
