Christingle
We have been talking about the Christian celebration of advent and Christmas. We know that Christians believe that God created the world. Christingle services are a way of bringing people together. For us, it is also brilliant fine motor skill task, showing responsible and safe behaviour with sharp objects and following instructions in order.
