I was reading in my little Advent book our church handed out, about a German Tradition that includes 12 specific ornaments to ensure a happy marriage. I thought it would be fun to create these 12 themed ornaments with the kids.
Angel (symbol of God’s guidance)
Fish (symbol of Christ’s blessing and of fertility)
Teapot (hospitality)
Bird (joy, happiness and the Holy Spirit)
Rabbit (hope and peace with nature)
Fruit Basket (generosity and plenty)
Heart (love in the home)
Pine Cone (fruitfulness, motherhood)
Flower Basket (good wishes in the home)
Rose (symbol of affection and the Virgin Mary)
House (protection)
Santa (goodwill, giving and sharing)
