This week we have been learning about Advent.
Advent is a Latin word that actually means "coming". Advent is time of preparation and waiting for the birth of Jesus. We read the book Llama Llama Holiday Drama by Anna Dewdney. The book helped us understand the true meaning of the holiday season. "Wishing, waiting, wanting thing... we forget what this time brings. Gifts are nice, but there's another - the true gift is we have each other"
We learned a Advent wreath has four candles, three purple and one pink. Each candle on the Advent Wreath has a specific meaning:
- Candle one (purple) represents hope.
- Candle two (purple) represents peace.
- Candle three (pink) represents joy.
- Candle four (purple) represents love.
