Advent is a season almost forgotten by the secular world. With new toys and electronics available, why should we focus on this time of anticipation? Most everyone cannot wait for Christmas morning to arrive, but is it for the right reason? Sarah A. Reinhard designed Welcome Baby Jesus for you and your family to capture some of what's intended by the liturgical season of Advent. Each day has a Scripture quote from the Sunday gospel readings, a brief reflection, and an action to complete. With each passing Sunday, your Advent Wreath will grow brighter, your family's faith will grow stronger, and the true meaning of this season will be discovered.

Review

Sarah Reinhard's beautifully designed book is ideal for those families who wish to embrace the true meaning of Christmas and to grow closer to Christ. -Ellen Gable Hrkach, author
Give your family a gift before the season begins, and then purchase several extra copies to give to family and friends. -Lisa Hendey, author, founder of CatholicMom.com

From the Author

This booklet is designed to help you and your family capture some of what's intended by the liturgical season of Advent. Each day has a Scripture quote, a brief reflection, and an action to complete.

What I hope you gain from this booklet is an appreciation of Advent. Do as much--or as little--as you can each day.

May your Advent be blessed this year, and may your Christmas be better for the preparation you do during Advent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for PreK-elementary ages!
Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2021
Verified Purchase
I found this Catholic devotional to be wonderful in topics, discussion, and especially length. We read it at dinner time so it provides plenty for us to talk about together. The Think section was perfect to start off conversations and could hold my 4 year old’s attention, particularly if you rephrase some sentences into questions. The Pray section was meaningful and easily read by my 6 year old. The Act section was great for discussions or to do when we finished eating. The Bible verses are a lot for my 4 year old but my husband finds them very valuable and appreciates talking them over with our 6 year old.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Lovely Resource for Families
Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2011
Verified Purchase
Welcome Baby Jesus is a sweet, wonderful, simple-but-meaty resource for families. The four weeks of Advent are presented thematically: Get Ready, Repent, Love, Anticipate. The final section, Rejoice, takes us through the Christmas season to the Feast of the Epiphany.

Each day includes sections to help us "Think, Pray and Act," along with a Scripture verse.

Here's an "Act" example from the first Sunday of Advent:

"One way to get ready for Jesus is to make an Advent resolution. What can you give Jesus? Is there a person you can be nice to all during Advent? Could you help someone in a special way during Advent? Think of something you can do to get ready for Jesus' birth."

Because Sarah doesn't talk down to kids, there's enough substance in the "Think" sections for us adults, so they work at varying levels for the whole family. We can all be challenged by such questions as, "When we are asked to do work we might consider 'servant' work, how do we respond?" (Ummm, I think I'll be taking yet another look at my attitude toward laundry this Advent.) For very young children, the "Think" passages could be shortened or skipped -- head straight to "Pray" and "Act" with the littlest ones.

I remember several years ago, when I first stumbled onto Sarah's blog. My first thought was that anyone who had a booklist sidebar labeled "Nose Inserted" and who called herself the Snoring Scholar was a kindred spirit. It's been a perfect delight to see Sarah's writing bloom and grow beyond her lovely blog. -- Karen Edmisten

I LOVE this book! It gives concise things to think and reflect and pray about as well as challenges to action... all relevant to the Advent season. Complete with snippets of scripture. Perfect length for a child and also great reminders for adults. Will help to draw each member of the family into the meaning of the season. Thank you, Sarah!

5.0 out of 5 stars The PERFECT little book to add to your daily Advent fun for your little one.
Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2018
Verified Purchase
This is more than what I expected for the price. It had a small prayer for each day that my 6 yr old daughter loved to do. I was surprised that all on her own she would wake up and read each days message then open her advent box to see her surprise. Or if she didn’t have time it as what she would read right before going to bed. I lOVED that it was split up into sections every day. The same sections my daughter knew exactly what to expect every day and how to read it. Next year I’m buying them as gifts for many children who are Christian. If they had one for all the Hanukah days I’d buy one for Jewish children. I love how this book is simple and set up perfectly with the right messages about sharing, caring and loving others especially those who have more than you.

My daughter took it very serious when it said to pray for someone you don’t know and write them a letter and mail it. We will be doing that this weekend. I really hope this author makes more of these types of little books. And the price is matches it perfectly. Buy this flimsy and perfect little book if you want your child to feel the love of Christmas. From my experience, this is how it felt to me. As you can see I highly recommebd it. And please don’t expect a hard cover book or a real book for this price as some trades have mentioned. Printing is expensive and every page in this book is in color which I appreciate. Perfect. Just perfect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect, short Advent booklet!
Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2017
Verified Purchase
LOVE this little Advent Booklet! Although this simple format had me hopeful that my 4 year old son and I could take the time every day in December to do these short lessons, I got a little behind and wasn't able to do every one. I loved the format of each day... each day had an applicable bible verse, then Think, Pray & Act sections that made the lesson come alive. The way the lessons are worded, I had to read ahead and paraphrase/translate for my four year old. He's just now able to grasp some biblical concepts, but much of the text in these lessons would have been over his head had I read it verbatim to him. Because of the busy-ness of the season (we've got a new baby at home) we weren't able to do each day's lesson, but we did sit down once or twice a week to read through one.. AND we made sure to stop every Sunday to light the Hope, Peace, Love, Joy & Christ candles, talk about the significance of that week's candle, and say our prayer for that day. The price was GREAT and we were happy to have this as part of our Advent Celebration this year.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not great for a 2 year old
Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2015
Verified Purchase
I do prefer this over not having any advent devotional, but it isn't a great fit for my family. We are not Catholic, and we have one 2 year old. Other reviews led me to believe this would be more little kid friendly, and that it was not overly Catholic, but I didn't find either to be true. There are references to Catholic rites pretty often so far, and there's a sense that if we're not ready for Jesus when Christmas comes we will be a big disappointment to Him. Much of each lesson is well over my toddler's head, too. There are certainly good points, though! It does encourage you to take an honest look at your heart daily, to love others, ask for and give forgiveness, and just think on Christ as Christmas nears. It could be a great book for the right family, but it just wasn't quite what we are needing. We will continue reading it until a toddler-and-Protestant-friendly replacement comes, due to the positives, though.

Great catholic book for families in preparation for Christmas. Highly recommended!! What makes me sad is to see people here belittle the mother of Jesus. How could the son of God be born from a sinner? To deny the sainthood of Mary is to deny the divinity of Christ as well. This is indeed a heresy.
