One my most popular Christmas posts is the set of 24 cards I created several years ago that tell a little piece of the Christmas story each day (you can see them HERE).
I love those cards, but I wanted to make a set that was a bit more kid-friendly (the earlier printable was written using the King James Version of the Bible).
This brand new version was created using the International Children’s Bible and the Easy Reader’s Version of the Bible. Plus, I did my very best to keep the verses short and without some of the more challenging vocabulary for little ears – like taxes and virgin.
I am all for educating our kids and having rich conversations with them about the Christmas story, but a 2-year-old is usually not ready to sit and listen to a sermon about the history of Caesar Augustus, the Roman Empire, and the great census. They typically just want to move along to finding out whether or not they can have some chicken nuggets for lunch.

Christmas is about Jesus. So let’s capture their little hearts and minds with a simple, fun, Christ-centered countdown to Christmas!
These little cards are the perfect size for Advent Calendars!
They also fit just right with your Elf on the Shelf or Shepherd on the Search each day!
If you’re looking for a meaningful way to celebrate Christmas this year and remember the One who it’s all about, I know you will love these cards!
