Read a question every day in December until Christmas. Find the ornament on page 43 that has the same number as the day. Use your scriptures to read the verse on the ornament to find the answer to the day’s question. Then cut out and paste, tape, or glue the ornament to the tree on this page. By Christmas your tree will be full and you will have learned more about the birth of Jesus Christ. If you would like, have a parent open the staples and remove these pages.
