Christmas Bucket List for Kids

Published December 02, 2020 Leave a Comment

Are you ready for easy Christmas fun with your kids? Print this free Christmas bucket list and let your kids make their own Christmas to do list! My 6 year old son, Nathan, began working on his Christmas list early this year. No, not the list of the presents he wanted, but rather the list of all the things he wanted to do this Christmas. That is a list that I love! On his list this year? Look at the Christmas lights, bake gingerbread cookies, watch Rudolph and listen to Christmas music.

Church Quiet Bag Ideas

Published July 13, 2020 Updated July 21, 2020 Leave a Comment

Church is important. Church with little ones is definitely challenging at times, but it is important. I grew up in the church (with a Pastor dad and organist mom). I was a church worker teacher (before I began staying at home) who is married to a church worker teacher.

Yes, there are many Sundays that I miss large parts of the sermon but we are there, by God's grace. (Here is some encouragement for when going to church with kids feels pointless.) I believe in modeling and … Read More...
