Christmas Around the World: A Fresh Way to Celebrate and Learn
Every December, families gather to share stories, create handmade gifts, and savor the joy of the season. But what if this year, you could explore how families around the world celebrate Christmas—while nurturing your child’s creativity, literacy, and curiosity?
That’s exactly what The Peaceful Press Christmas Guide Volume 2 offers. This thoughtfully designed curriculum brings a fresh perspective to the holiday season, inviting your family to experience the wonder of “European Christmas,” “Prairie Christmas,” and “Christmas Around the World.”
With classic stories, creative crafts, and simple family traditions, your homeschool days can become a festive blend of learning and joy.
✨ Literature-Based Learning for the Season
At the heart of the guide is literature-based learning—beautiful stories that anchor your child’s understanding of Christmas traditions and themes.
Read aloud family favorites like, Christmas in Noisy Village by Astrid Lindgren, and The Night of Las Posadas by Tomie dePaola. These timeless books nurture a love for reading while introducing children to Christmas traditions in other lands.
As you journey through each story, your child isn’t just learning about Christmas—they’re connecting to history, imagination, and cultures across the world.
🎄 Hands-On Crafts That Spark Creativity
Christmas is the perfect time for hands-on learning! The guide includes festive activities that engage all the senses—making clay ornaments, sewing animal pincushions, crafting birdseed ornaments, and even building gingerbread houses.
These creative projects encourage fine motor development, focus, and self-expression. Plus, they fill your home with handmade beauty and heartwarming memories.
🔤 Playful Phonics and Counting Activities
Even during the holidays, learning can feel like play. Children practice essential skills with festive phonics and counting activities—like exploring Christmas nativity words, skip counting by 10s, or measuring ingredients for baked treats.
By weaving literacy and numeracy into the joy of the season, you’re giving your child a solid foundation that feels both meaningful and magical.
🍎 Family Recipes and Practical Life Skills
One of the sweetest parts of Christmas is time spent in the kitchen together. The guide includes simple family-friendly recipes—like butterscotch bars, apple pie, and homemade hot cocoa mix—that let your child participate in real-life learning.
From measuring ingredients to cleaning up afterward, these moments nurture responsibility, independence, and the joy of giving.
