Advent 2023 - Part 1

 This year's advent project for my grandchildren is a progressive diorama. The non-celiac in this house had to eat a lot of cereal to provide the cereal boxes that I needed. 

Here is the development of the idea:


Building of one of the boxes. I am pretty good at building boxes out of boxes. 



The children will each have their own box and diorama to build. They each have a book of pockets, one pocket for each day, with some general directions for the children and parents. Most of the activities take very little time.






Day 1 -  The sky. It is hard to tell in the photo that it is a day/night sky.
Day 2 -  The sun and stars.



Day 3 - The hills and rocks (Mary and Joseph are on the crest of the hill)
Day 4 - The trees


Day 5 - Shepherds; Mary and Joseph
Day 6 - Sheep
Day 7 - Rocks and bushes
