My Christmas Giving Wheel
Monday, December 5, 2011

Throughout the Christmas season, spin this wheel to discover what activity you can do to give love and kindness to Jesus and others.

What can I give Him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb.
If I were a wise man, I would do my part,
Yet what I can I give Him: give my heart.

—Christina G. Rossetti (1830–1894)

Make a Christmas card for a friend or family member. Be sure to send lots of love with your card.

Say a Christmas prayer for someone whose day you want to brighten.

Praise Jesus for two things you are grateful for.

Think of a country, and say a prayer for children who live there to have a love-filled season.

Pick one thing you can do today to show someone love and kindness.

Think of something you appreciate about a friend or family member, and then be sure to tell him or her.

Say a prayer asking Jesus to comfort those near and far who are sad or in need.

Sing a Christmas carol to Jesus in honor of His birthday.

You will need:

  • Colored pencils, crayons, or markers
  • Scissors
  • Clear plastic
  • 1 large brad
  • Toothpick or hole punch

Instructions: Color the background page and circle inset. Cover with clear plastic. Cut out wheel and the window on the wheel. Use a toothpick (or hole punch) to make a small hole in the center of the wheel and the circle on the main page where you will insert the brad. Connect circle to background page with brad. Make sure the wheel spins freely. Hang it on the wall, and be sure to give it a spin each day, and then follow the activity.

Have a wonderful season spreading Christmas cheer!
