We thoroughly enjoyed this unit. My kids are 6 and 4 so there was something for everyone and we will be using it again next year. Love all the info and ease of use.

So nice that I didn’t have to gather all of the supplies and books, since they were included! We really love “Apple Tree Christmas,” “The Friendly Beasts,” and “Christmas Tree Farm,” which were all new to our family. I don’t love dePaola’s “The Three Wise Men” and am unsure about “God Gave Us Christmas,” but again, I didn’t have to spend the time picking things out, and I like the biblical focus and cute, easy, and themed ideas! The illustrations included for the nativity and memory cards are really lovely. My kids and I are having a great time so far (halfway through the first week).
