Dr. Pat's Orthodox Super Sunday School Curriculum

Nativity of Our Lord

Home Activities:

• Put up a sturdy Nativity scene with unbreakable figures in your child’s room and review the identity and story behind each of the figures. No wise men yet!
• Place an icon of the Nativity in a special place in your home.
• Cut out old Christmas cards and make into a booklet, gluing them onto construction paper and held together with yarn or staples.
• Sing the Nativity Troparion
• Make a gift to share a Christmastime with a shut-in.
• Older children, Christmas activity sheet
• Print a copy of our Advent Calendar for each child and color the animals and icon. When Advent starts, begin to color one star for each of the 40 days. 

Prayer: Dear Jesus, Thank you for letting me remember your Birthday.  Thank you, God for sending Your Son to us. Amen.
