Making Christmas Wreaths with Children: A Great Way to Teach about the Meaning of Christmas
Christmas wreaths are a fun and creative way to decorate your house. They can be made of evergreen if you want a traditional look, or of Styrofoam. Styrofoam is great because you can insert various decorations into it, completely covering it. For example, you can insert pieces of fake evergreen into the Styrofoam, and then add bits of fake poinsettia, cranberries, and ribbons in the colors of advent candles (purple, pink, and white) for a very colorful wreath.
Come up with symbolic reasons for each decoration you are using to make the wreath. One way to do this is to explain why you are using purple, pink, and white ribbons. Tell them that purple symbolizes royalty, and Jesus is the King of Kings. Pink can symbolize Gods heart that loves humanity. White can symbolize the purity of Jesus. You can tell them about the story behind poinsettias, or why they are used during the Christmas season.
There is another way to use Christmas wreaths to teach children about the true meaning of the season. The wreaths that you make can be given to others who need a bit of Christmas cheer. Christmas is about giving, beginning with Gods gift of Christ to humanity. There are many different places in the community that need holiday cheer. The list can go on and on, but a few ideas are homeless shelters, non-profit organizations that give to the community (the workers can become over burdened during the Christmas season), local fire stations, and police stations. Call before you bring the wreaths to the places you want to give them. Explain that you are teaching your children about the meaning of Christmas, and want to give them the wreaths that you made. I am sure they will be thrilled to get the wreaths, and the children will be thrilled to see the responses of the recipients.
Christmas is one of the best festivals to be celebrated- it’s a festival of love, happiness, and peace. Make it special with these unique door decorations.
