In the December issue of the magazine, children can search for Jesus in the manger, make a Santa Lucia crown and sing and sign "Joy to the World." They'll help adults "read" pictures telling the story of Jesus' birth, meet Hannah from India, and hear about Sunday-schoolers who share gifts for children in need.
