A little christmas elf/angel help!

[lil_stutt]

Hi,

I am in need of some help...

I help out in a sunday school and was looking for new ideas to teach the children about the christmas story and traditions this year, and thought I could adapt the idea of the christmas elf into a christmas angel.

Does anyone have any ideas of what I could try and do with this?

Hi, what a cute idea. She could be helpful over naughty I think. Maybe put up some decorations and a nativity for the kids. Will she be out and visible? MAybe a note on the board saying who she is and what she did? Choclote kisses=angel kisses. or I have seen the Christmas story told w/ M&Ms she coudl bring some for the kids one sunday.

you didn't say the ages but a craft can be brought by the Angel as well that helps tell the story like using a candy cane http://www.greatcom.org/resources/sharing_in_the_classroom/christmas_sharing/legendofcandycane.htm

I'll try to think of more but I am sure some here will have great ideas.

The children are ages 6 to 12 and they really enjoy doing crafts.
