Have the child repeat each line after you.
We're going on a long trip (pretend to ride a camel)
Do you see that shining star? (point to the sky)
Saddle up your camels (pretend to ride a camel)
Because we are going very far (place hand at forehead to look off)
We're going on a long trip (pretend to ride a camel)
Look! The star is overhead (point to the sky)
I see the sweet, baby Jesus (pretend to rock a baby)
In the manger as His bed (place hands on side of head like asleep)
We've come from a long trip (pretend to ride a camel)
The star showed us the way (point to the sky)
To worship our true Savior (hands in prayer)
And, I'll praise Him every day (hands lifted in the air)

Art- Snowman Necklace or Ornament Make a snowman that you can wear as a necklace or use as an ornament. |
SUPPLIES NEEDED:
- White glue (like Elmer's glue)
- Paper clip
- Waxed paper
- Scraps of construction paper: black, and orange
- A hole punch (for cutting eyes, and buttons)
- Scissors
- Googly eyes (from a craft store) - optional
- Tiny buttons - optional
- 2 very tiny twigs (for arms)
- String or yarn (for hanging it)
Working on waxed paper, spread 2 or 3 blobs of white glue in the shape of a snowman. Unfold a paper clip into a V-shape (to use as a hanger).
Cut a tiny hat from black construction paper and put it on the snowman on top of the paper clip hanger. Put the ends of the paper clip into the glue at the top of the snowman. For the snowman's eyes, use black paper circles cut with a hole punch, or use googly eyes. Put the eyes on the snowman. Add a tiny orange (carrot-shaped) nose. Add a few paper buttons (or small real buttons) down the front of the body.

Let the glue dry - it will take a few days. When it dries, the glue will become transparent. When it is completely dry, peel it gently off the waxed paper. String the snowman on some yarn for a cool necklace or use a shorter string to use as an ornament.

Craft- Real Crystal Snowflake Make an amazing snowflake from real crystal (borax). This is a beautiful project (and also demonstrates some basic principles of chemistry). |
Supplies needed:
Make a giant snowflake frame from 3 white pipe cleaners and string. Twist the 3 pipe cleaners together in the center to make a 6-sided, spiky figure. Make sure this figure fits inside the wide-mouthed jar. Tie the string around the pipe cleaners to look like a snowflake shape. Trim the excess string. Tie a few inches of string to one of the pipe cleaners. Tie the other end of the string to a pencil, so that the snowflake will hang from the pencil and dangle inside the jar. Take the snowflake out of the jar. Pour boiling water into the jar (have an adult do this part). Add the 20 Mule Team Borax Laundry Booster to the hot water in the jar. Keep adding the Borax until you have a supersaturated solution (you will see undissolved Borax at the bottom of the jar). You'll have to add about 3 tablespoonfuls of the 20 Mule Team Borax Laundry Booster to each cup of hot water in the jar. Optional: Add a few drops of blue food coloring for a bluish snowflake. Hang the snowflake in the jar and wait at least overnight. In the morning, your snowflake will be covered with beautiful crystals. As the supersaturated solution cools, the borax comes out of solution (less of the borax can dissolve in cool water) and forms crystals on the pipe cleaners and string. You can do the same type of project using supersaturated sugar-water and a string, making edible rock candy (but the crystals take longer to form). |
