Giving Like Jesus: 25 Days of Christmas Kindness for Kids (Ages 4–12)

Christmas is a season of giving, because God gave us the greatest gift of all! Giving Like Jesus helps kids see how Jesus loved people and then go love others the same way, with one simple act of kindness each day from December 1 to Christmas.

Each daily card has two parts: Jesus Did It, a true story from the Bible with its reference, and Your Turn, one kindness your family can do that day. Jesus is our ultimate example, and this calendar points kids right to Him.

Four Weeks of Following Jesus' Example

• Week 1: Jesus Serves (Mark 10:45): washing feet, cooking breakfast, feeding the hungry
• Week 2: Jesus Notices People (Matthew 9:36): Zacchaeus, the children, Bartimaeus
• Week 3: Jesus Shares (Acts 20:35): the boy's lunch, the Good Samaritan, time with friends
• Week 4: Jesus Loves (John 13:34): forgiving, praying for others, encouraging
• Christmas Day: God gave the greatest gift (John 3:16)
