Advent: A Family Celebration Prayers and Activities for Each Day Julie Walters Here is a book to help parents reclaim the busy season of Advent and create spiritual time for their families. Reflections for both younger and older children, designed to be read with the lighting of the candles of the Advent wreath, link a Scripture passage from that day's Mass readings to a story or event. Activities such as the Jesse Tree, Advent angels, and a story about the Little Juggler will help children to enjoy and live out this beautiful season, year after year.
