Joseph and Mary are on their way to Bethlehem
Years ago, I found this book, Celebrate Jesus at Christmas, to use for our daily readings during Advent. In this book, you set up an empty stable under your tree (or another area of your home). At the end of the daily readings, you move the nativity pieces around your home as they journey toward Bethlehem and the stable. I looked everywhere for just the right nativity set to use that my kids could enjoy moving around the house. We don't read the daily readings from this book every year now, but we still move around our nativity pieces. Baby Jesus will arrive on Christmas morning wrapped in gold paper and is the first 'gift' the kids open. This has been one tradition we have enjoyed.
What Christmas tradition do you enjoy as a family?
