It’s not Christmas in our household without kidmade decorations. There is a lot of fun stuff out there (keep an eye on The Crafty Crow for a selection of the best): paper snowflakes, wreathes, tissue paper angels, glittery initial ornaments, oh my!
I checked out A Classical Kids Christmas from the library, and we really liked it. The Christmas narrative is interspersed with carols (usually not the whole song, alas) and poems. This CD also includes Christmas traditions from around the world. I’m going to get a copy for our own collection.

Hi Rabia, great post! Plenty of ideas here to print out and leave lying in plain sight! ๐
