Examples

Please remember that the ideas below are just starting points. If you see an idea that you like - you don't need to follow it exactly. (For instance, instead of drawing a Saint celebrating Christmas, you could draw anyone - famous or unknown - celebrating Christmas, in remembrance of Jesus’ Birthday). Be creative and have fun!

ART

You could draw a picture of...

- Christmas Carolers

- The Holy Family looking for a place to stay

- The Shepherds seeing the Holy Angels singing

- The Wise Men at any point in their journey

- A family setting up a Nativity creche

- A Christmas Pageant being prepared or performed

- A Saint celebrating Christmas

- Your own designed Christmas Card

WRITING

You could write...

- A story based on someone who was at the first Christmas (e.g. one of the shepherds, another traveler in Bethlehem, the man who owned the stable, etc.).

- A poem about Christmas, either the day itself, or how it has impacted the world.

- A prayer that centers around the blessings of Christmas (e.g. a prayer of thanks to Mary and Joseph, a prayer of love to Baby Jesus, etc.).

- A story of some event that you've created that takes place at Christmas.
