Hi, I’m Sarah. I’ve always loved a good story, and my favorites are the stories that show and remind us of how good God is. Sharing these stories with the little people in my life is such a joy, and I’m excited to share them with you and the children in your life too.
May we discover together a God who is full of goodness and love.

In 2021, I set out to find a nativity advent calendar to use with my kids and couldn’t quite find what I was looking for, so I decided to create my own. And now I have the joy of sharing them with others too!
Nativity Story Advent Calendars tell the story of the events leading up to and including Jesus’s birth. All through December, you’ll add a new piece to the story board each day and share the story with your child using a day-by-day guide written to accompany this felt board.
Each character is designed and made in my home and is meant for children to hold and touch as they experience the story in their own hands. Sets include the storyboard, felt characters and pieces, and the written resource.

Children are invited to experience the story without jumping straight to the ending, giving them the opportunity to wonder along the way. Each day will include a “wondering” - an open ended question that invites the child to connect to the story through imagination and curiosity.
