Print your LEGO nativity cards.
Cut LEGO cards and place by order of day.
Each day take a card and make the LEGO figure to add to your nativity scene.
Read the accompanying Christmas Bible verse after (or before) you build.
When all LEGO figures have been completed, read the full story of Christmas found in Matthew 1:18 -2:12: Luke 2:1-20.

For the LEGO printables, step-by-step nativity figure instructions are not included. Rather your child is given a a list of what to make each day. Let your child get creative with the pieces they have to create each character of the LEGO Christmas Nativity Set.

We suggest keeping the final pieces as you go, so you have a full nativity set when done. However, if you do not have a huge stash of LEGOs, you can build each day and then build something different the next day.

12 Days of Christmas LEGO Challenge

Each day, your child is given a creative challenge. To build a new piece of their DIY LEGO Advent Calendar until they have a complete Nativity. Each piece of the challenge includes Christmas bible verses to tell the story of the birth of Christ.

Christmas family traditions can be intentional. They can remove the greed and return the focus to the reason for the season. Simplify your family Christmas with these Need, Want, Wear, Read Christmas Gift Tags. Four gifts under the tree. Our gift tags for Christmas also include a Christmas Gift Guide for ideas.

Need, Want, Wear, Read Christmas Gift Tags

Looking for a new Family Christmas Traditions? This is such an easy idea and really simplifies Christmas gift giving. Before beginning your Christmas shopping, focus on four things. Need, Want, Read, Wear. One gift for each category. Eliminate counting gifts under tree. Eliminate greed becoming the focus. Instead of quantity, focus returns to simplicity and allows for a greater focus on the reason for the Christmas season. Return the focus to the true gift of the season – the birth of Christ.

Christmas Gift Ideas

Last year we really tried to limit gifts and focus more on the experience. With that, a friend introduced me to Want Need, Read, Wear Christmas Gift Ideas. I thought it was a brilliant idea. It gives each child four gifts. You can go expensive with these Christmas Gift Giving Rules or you can stay frugal friendly.

Ask your child to help. Tell them you want them to brainstorm gift ideas for the following categories – read, wear, want, need. If they need inspiration, you can share with them our Christmas Gift Guide for ideas.

Want

Action figure or doll
Plush or stuffed animal
Video game
LEGOs
Electronic device
Radio controlled toy
Model building
Science/educational toy
Games
___________
___________

Need

School supplies
Music instrument
Sport equipment

Slippers
___________

Keep it simple! If you are keeping the gift under your tree low in quantity, focus on having a large family gift like an experience – travel, a theme park, a swimming pool, a family membership to a club, etc.

Elf on the Shelf Skittles Rainbow Experiment

For this Elf on the Shelf activity, the kids participate in a Skittles Rainbow Experiment. New creative, funny, and original Elf on the Shelf Ideas daily.

Elf on the Shelf Ideas

We are back, so is the Elf on the Shelf! If you have been with us a long time, you know we have brought you a new Elf on the Shelf Ideas daily (in the months of November and December) for the past six years. You can view our Elf on the Shelf Master List for a full list of ideas including every idea we have ever done.

Skittles Rainbow Experiment

Have you seen our five minute science experiments for kids? There are many ideas you can incorporate into your December Elf on the Shelf ideas. We did not pull this activity from that list, but we have a Skittles Rainbow Experiment your kids will love to do with their red elves.

Skittles Rainbow Supplies

The Elf on the Shelf doll
Skittles package
1/4 Cup Warm Water
White plate (white shows the background)

Skittles Rainbow Experiment Directions

Elf can leave these written directions, though we will provide you with more detailed directions below.

“Let’s make a rainbow. Just add warm water.”

First, arrange your Skittles in a circular pattern around the edge of the plate. One skittle, side by side, until your skittles form a circle radius of the plate. (You can do this for your kids/Elf or you can just layout a box of Skittles for your kid to do when they wake.)

When your skittles are in place, pour over enough warm water to cover all the Skittles and the plate itself.

Watch and wait as a Skittles rainbow appears. You will watch the colors bleed toward the center/middle of the plate.

Skittles Rainbow Explanation

Skittle candy is full of dye. The combination of dye and sugar dissolves quickly in warm water. When placed in a shallow plate of warm water, the dye quickly dissolves in the water making a colorful rainbow. The reason the colors do not mix naturally (unless stirred, shaken, or sit awhile) is because each food color has the same amount of sugar dissolved from each Skittle. As the sugar dissolved, it pushed outwards into the color beside it building almost a wall against the neighboring solution

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf.
