A Connected Christmas, Volume Two

We loved using this for our Christmas school. It was an amazing way to enjoy the Christmas season. We loved the recipes and activities… Definitely recommend!

I just want to thank you for writing and publishing such a beautiful advent Christmas curriculum. This was our first year dropping everything else and just focusing on Christmas between Thanksgiving and Christmas. We used your Connected Christmas curriculum and what a blessing it has been to our family. After completing our last lesson, it was so bittersweet to be officially done with Christmas school! We thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of your Christmas school curriculum. Our favorite read alouds were: Christmas Tapestry, An Orange for Frankie, and The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey. Although we truly enjoyed them all! The activities were engaging and fun, and our children even sung one of the hymns and recited one of the poems we had studied during Christmas school for our church’s Christmas Eve service.

I have the special blessing of homeschooling alongside my two sisters and their families and how special it was to do Christmas school altogether each morning with my own children aged 8 years old, 7 years old, 3 years old, and 17 months, along with my nieces and nephews aged 14 years old, 10 years old, 7 years old, and 5 years old. Even my parents who live nearby were able to join in most mornings! We chatted many mornings about what joy it brought all of us to sit together in the parlor of my sisters’ farmhouse where my dad grew up, watching the swirling snowflakes dance outside the window, and celebrate this advent season through the Connected Christmas curriculum! These are memories we will cherish forever and new traditions we will continue for years to come! We can’t wait to do your Christmas Around the World curriculum next year! Thank you again!

I loved this. I completed with a 6 and 5 year old over 4 weeks. We didn’t dive into every single activity such as all of the copy work and it worked for us. We did do all of the crafts, scripture, stories and notebook work. It was wholesome and wonderful and I’m excited to re-use over the years and dive deeper as they grow academically.

We purchased a connected Christmas in 2025 for my 3rd grader and kindergartener.
They both really enjoyed it and it allowed me to slow down in this season. We plan to do it again next year!

I was looking for a slower December curriculum focus to be able to savor the joys and slower pace of winter, while not getting drawn into the chaos of the season this year. Wanting to honor our King Jesus and His humble arrival, we wanted to make homemade gifts, sing traditional songs, look at beautiful art, and memorize scripture together. This has been perfect and so beautiful. It has helped us shape a slower, more gentle December and beginning to the winter season. Very fulfilling and meaningful 💛

This is our first year doing the Connected Christmas curriculum. It has been nice being able to take a break from our typical homeschool routine, slow down, and focus on the reason for the season. I’ve loved the readings and activities each day. I haven’t been able to get my hands on all of the books but I’ve found online read alouds for everyone I haven’t found. Nice way to wind down the year.

I was knew to doing a Thanksgiving and Christmas curriculum but I was very interested in doing so this year. I'm a newish homeschooling mother of 3 (11, 9, 5)

I absolutely loved these. They are beautiful and thoughtful. A little hard to read the layout of at a first glance, but upon flipping threw the pages a few times, it registered beautifully. Wonderful poems and art and all around a great concept!

I’m a first year homeschool mom of four kids between the ages of 3 & 11. This curriculum was such a blessing to us this Christmas season. It helped us in slowing down from the hustle and bustle, we soaked in time together (we adored the crafts and recipes,) and most importantly we focused on our Savior! Our children thoroughly enjoyed learning throughout this curriculum. We even did a little “Christmas presentation” for dad and grandma over all we learned. They sang the carols, read poems, recited the Scriptures they memorized. I couldn’t recommend this more! We are eager to purchase the Winter Study and dive in. 5/5 without hesitation. I really have no clue how this could ever receive a negative review.

My family loved this unit!! The only thing I would have liked were QR codes for the suggested books on YouTube or their ISBN numbers. Overall a fabulous open and go unit! We subbed out making piñatas & made paper plate poinsettias for Mexico but otherwise followed the activities fairly close. I love that you can easily flex things to meet the needs of your family!

We’re grateful for some guidance on how to study and explore this advent season. One addition I would love (and could be a general document) would be how to really maximize on read alouds. How to introduce it; what to ask while reading, etc. similar to the guidance for the artwork.

I can’t believe I spent $60 on this . I didn’t realize that I bought the physical copy plus digital for this bundle until I received a notification for shipping . At that point it’s to late to cancel so there wasn’t anything I could do . When it arrived my mouth dropped . truly, I was looking forward to the physical copy and was ok with that until I opened the box. I can’t not ever justify $60 for 60 pages . (Front and back .) I ordered the thanksgiving unit and this one .
These lessons are nothing comparable to something like gather round which is much more worth the price .(I do understand that these are not the same styles of learning .) These are not filled with lessons and information like GR. With this study , you still have to outsource materials , and books . Which is definitely fine and what I planned on doing . The problem that I have is strictly the pricing .
I’m not sure who controls the pricing but there is no way you can tell me this book was worth $60! If this was jam packed with work sheets , copy work, reading sheets … whatever else you can think of …yeah I would love this .
But for the types of things in this book is nothing worth that amount of money . Not even the binding . I hope this helps people who are planning to purchase the physical copy. This has mostly craft ideas and things you will have to outsource. This may be problematic especially if your libraries don’t ever have the books you need . Like mine .

I’ve learned more about the history of Thanksgiving than ever before in 13 years of public school!! My kids are younger, so I was able to pick and choose which activities and subjects were most digestible for their capacities and attention spans. There’s so many options that I can use this curriculum for many years and the kids will experience it differently each year! I love this program!

Love this product and very excited for the holiday season to start!

We just received this and I can't wait for us to try it this Christmas! I'm looking forward to talking a break from normal homeschool and just focus on and enjoy the Christmas season. This Christmas study seems very well laid out with a lot of fun activities and meaningful stories/lessons to lean into the holiday time!

I appreciate the fun diversity of activities and ways to connect with the family. There were enough book options I could look through the list and select ones that weren’t overly magic heavy, and still do the full curriculum.

We've done the first connected Christmas for several years and and loved it. This year we are excited to use volume two!

I ordered this so we could use it this Christmas. I’ve heard great things from other homeschool mom friends and we are looking forward to walking through it. In reviewing the curriculum I can tell it’s going to create a great opportunity for us to focus on the true meaning of Christmas while also managing my little learners at the same time!

My family truly loves all of the holiday studies from THSH, I didn’t question buying this second connected Christmas, and it absolutely did not disappoint. Both my 5 and 11 year old loved it

This is beautiful and I can't wait to use it with my young family. I love how clearly everything is laid out and designed. Makes it easy for planning during a busy time of year!

My family recently discovered this shop and we have worked through A Connected Christmas and it was wonderful! It was such a great resource for our family to stay focused on Christ during the busy Christmas season. We loved every part of the material from the read aloud books, crafts, art study, songs, and scripture. Thank you for a wonderful program and I look forward to using more of your products.

We enjoyed all the crafts and stories this year! a wonderful reminder of the reason for the season

we love taking a break from our normal school days and delving into Christmas studies. Such a great and easy reminder of why we celebrate the Christmas season.
