Craft Activities for Children Luke 1 for the Fourth Sunday of Advent
This lesson for the last Sunday of Advent considers how music allows us to express our love for God. Songs and prayers help us to thank Him for His bountiful blessings and gifts. These crafts provide a musical outlet as well as Christmas celebration. A “Maraca Bag” serves as decorative gift and noisemaker. A “Singing Angel Puppet” recalls the songs of God’s angelic messengers. Let’s get crafty!

On the inside of the bag, place noisemakers, such as dried noodles or beans, corn kernels, or jingle bells.
