Advent Paper Chains

The countdown to Christmas has begun!! With so many families caught up in the hustle and bustle of everyday life and the stress that the holidays may bring, this paper chain will not only decorate each students' home, but will help to bring families back to the real meaning of Christmas! Using scissors and glue or tape, the students will construct the 25-link-long chain and will daily unhook that day's link to find a Bible verse and an activity. These links could easily be used for family devotions. The links to the chain alternate between the even- and odd-numbered days of Christmas. Using red and green copy paper, run off the evens on one color and odds on the other. Christmas Day should be printed on white paper. Enjoy your Advent season, as we await the coming of the King!!
