A
Fresh Approach to Advent this year ...
What do you most
want to celebrate in the rush of the
Christmas season?

Date:
Advent, 2008

Michelle Geffken
Isn't
it easy to lose
sight of Christ in the chaos of Christmas?
Imagine
if you could take a break from the
busyness ...
Make
rich memories with your children ... And
best of all ...
Open
your children's eyes to the reality of
Christ's birth!
Now I
know you're busy but ...
What if I
showed you a simple way of using resources you already own, to unlock
learning you'll be amazed by, during the season of Advent?
Learning
that would not only open a world to your
children about
CHRISTMAS ... but also about ART ...
| You've
really got me thinking about the lack of art education in our
home. You have some wonderful ideas I had not
thought of
which are easy to implement and will help us teach the true Christmas
story and art! Yahoo!

The story is so full of drama!
It's not surprising
that some of the greatest artists in history have chosen to paint the
birth of Christ.
"But
I've always struggled to include art in my homeschool!"
Last year over 1500
homeschool parents like you answered our survey about
their greatest challenge teaching art at home.
The number ONE issue we
found was (and if this is you, be encouraged that
you're not
alone!):
"No one taught ME art ... so
how am I
supposed to teach MY
CHILDREN?!"
I've encountered the same
frustration. My six children have stuck with me through all
our
trial and error!
After over ten years of
searching I've found some grace-filled answers, and a way of teaching
art that is so painless ... and do-able ... You
know how it is once you hear something and think ... why didn't anyone
tell me that before?!
Using
ARTFUL ADVENT! will start you on the road to confidence and success
with art in your homeschool.

- Ideas
you can apply all year - finally
get art
into your homeschool!
- Specific
questions to ask - that
teach your
child to look carefully ... with no guess work for you.
- The
best LIVING books - you
may own many of
them but you'll be amazed what you can teach from them!
| You have
given me lots of ideas on how to use the beautiful art books we do
have. While we look at illustrations in books, I don't always know how
to direct a conversation about the picture with my children.
I like art,
but I LOVE books, so I really
appreciate the book recommendations. Thanks again for adding pleasure
to my busy day.

- The
greatest resource for explaining the story of
Christmas - at
your fingertips. I'll show you where!
- Hands-on
learning too - that
enhances your
understanding of the season.
- Live
links to artists' websites - Let

| One
thing I liked was the breakdown by age. This saves me time and energy
getting all my children involved in something they will enjoy.
This book is
very informative and gave me
resources I didn't know about. I am a mixed media and book artist who
is always looking for ways to incorporate art into our home education.
Thanks for
the terrific resource.

| I have
struggled for years to get art into our curriculum, and here you are
telling me in simple plain English. This year is going to include art
appreciation. Thanks heaps.

| What a
lovely publication! You wrote that for people just like me. I don't
have an artistic bone in my body. Nor do I have very much knowledge of
art history, the masters, etc. Artful Advent was incredibly helpful.

| WOW!
What a great little book! I am amazed at the wealth of information
there is and it's not wordy or complicated. I can't wait to use these
ideas with my children this coming Advent season.
It makes you
think about art in a whole new light
...
