Reformation and Thankfulness
9:58 AM |
Edit Post
We had a Reformation Day celebration at church yesterday evening, and it gave me a great idea for a craft project you can do with your kids.
What??? A craft idea from me? Ummm…not exactly.
This craft was literally handed to me by another experienced homeschooling mom; it’s just one more reason why you shouldn’t go it alone. If you surround yourself with other parents who are further along on this journey than you are, you are bound to get ideas that you never would have come up with on your own.
This craft will help you count the days between Reformation Day (October 31st) and Thanksgiving (this year, November 25th). It will add some continuity to the season–almost like an Advent calendar for Thanksgiving–and will help to brighten your home as the days get colder and darker.
