Christmas Carols for a Kid's Heart
by Bobbie Wolgemuth and
Joni Eareckson Tada

from the dust jacket:
"Christmas is a time for making memories. And musical memories are one of the most precious gifts we can give the children we love...This treasure book will give your children a special vision of the true meaning of Christmas...heartwarming stories and singing along with Joni, Bobbie, and the children on the enclosed richly orchestrated CD...passing along a favorite Christmas tradition has never been easier or more fun."

I totally agree...and I am "mucially challenged!" We have used the CD while cuddling on the couch, while driving around, wherever we have gone this season. We listen to the CD throughout the day, and then read the stories with Daddy in the evening during story time. The stories include Bible stories and history, even telling about the origin of the carol and the authors and composers. As we work through the stories in the book during the evening, we re-sing the corresponding carol. The children (ages 7,8, and 11) have really enjoyed the stories, the music (our 7 year old has to dance to it), and are really learning the lyrics. The book also includes a prayer and a memory verse for each carol and could be used as a devotional during the advent season.
