Day 8 - Sun

Luke 1:57-80

Thank goodness for the dollar store at Christmas...where else could I find gold sparkel-foam that was sticky on one side for 1/2 a dollar?

This was about Zechariah describing Jesus as the “rising sun” coming from heaven to
“shine on those living in darkness”. The kids related this back to the first craft of making a candle. Pumpkin turned off all the lights to demonstrate darkness and then turned on the Christmas Tree lights to show how Jesus is the light. We talked about night and day and how in the morning the world is dark and the the sun comes up and there is light. Since the sun doesn't rise until after 7am, the kids are usually up to watch the sky change a rainbow of colours.
