- Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2024“Discovering Christmas ” is a heartwarming and beautifully written children’s Christian Christmas book. This lovely book is for children 4-8 that gives 25 devotionals and captures the essence of the holiday season.
The author does a fantastic job of the message of Christmas. The book includes Scripture references and meaningful reflections, making it an excellent resource for fun activities and questions for children during Advent.
One of the highlights for me was how the book encouraged a spirit of generosity and love, emphasizing values like kindness, humility, and faith. The illustrations are also lovely and add to the book’s charm.
I would highly recommend this book for families, church groups and would absolutely purchase again for gifting.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2024This 25-day Christmas devotional will engage the whole family. Each devotion includes a read about it, talk about it, go about it, and pray about it section. The activities are short and simple and can be done quickly. The devotions are written in literal language that kids can understand and feature winsome and diverse illustrations. Perfect for young families!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2024I am a mom and school librarian. We have a LOT of books but this is by far my favorite Christmas book. This was our advent countdown and our holiday checklist. Extremely well written this book had a short passage to read each day, scripture to connect to, discussion questions, “go about it” or activity suggestions and finally a prayer we shared. We were not able to read, talk AND do every single night but that means that we can pull it out again next year and again and again and still have something fresh. It also brought more meaning to activities we were already doing like playing with the nativity or seeing Christmas lights, singing Christmas carols. If you have young kids I highly recommend this book!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2025Looking for a great devotional to do with your young kids? This is one of our favorites! Our kid loves this and it is age-appropriate for parents to use with both younger and older kids. We love the content and focus on the true Christmas story. The art is amazing and so creative. This is definitely a book our kid reaches for on the shelf!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2024Purchased this book to do something special with my 4 and 8 year old leading up to Christmas and it was great! Short and concise daily readings with biblical truth to highlight the reason we celebrate Christmas. I especially liked the daily scripture and thoughtful questions to ask my kids. We didn’t do all of the activities, but we’ll definitely use this book next year and explore some of the ones we missed.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2024This is an amazing devotional! I love that there are four sections of each devotion: “Read About It,” “Talk About It,” “Go About It,” and “Pray About It.” It’s so engaging for children, and each devotion invites them to deeper understanding of the chosen scripture for that day. What a beautiful book to foster spiritual growth and true understanding of Christmas being all about Jesus’ birth—and goes beyond that to help children understand the ultimate gift of salvation through His death and resurrection!!! I can’t wait for more books from Amanda Jass!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2024We try to get a Christmas-theme devotional book for it family devotions every year. This one is different than anything we've done in the past, and my kids LOVE IT! They look forward to family devotions every day, and even plan ahead and ask to do devotions early if they know we will be gone in the evenings. The activities are their favorite part. Most of the activities don't require anything special ahead of time (though some are things like making cookies and delivering them, so those obviously are more of a time commitment and don't always fit in the schedule). Truly delighted with this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2024Fun Christmas book to read to the kids.
