How to Experience the Music of Christmas in Your Homeschool (even if you have no time)
Do you change up your homeschool work to do Christmas School or at least add in some fun, extra holiday activities in December? If not, you should! Experience the Music of Christmas in Your Homeschool this year, even if you have no time!
I know you homeschool moms are busy. How do I know? Because I am one, and I have 8 kids! Three are in elementary, two are in middle school, and three are in high school. We rarely do music appreciation in our home, and I want that to change.
I have written all my elementary online music courses to be short and sweet, click-and-go, 15-minute music lessons!
And, the new Music of Christmas course is no different.

Year 3: Traditional Lessons and Carols
The Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols was first celebrated at King’s College, Cambridge on Christmas Eve, 1918. The lessons included here in this course are an adaptation for kids that can be done in 15 minutes per lesson and include reading the “lesson” (from Scripture) and listening to and/or singing the Christmas songs and carols. Additionally, there is a piece of famous artwork included with every lesson related to the Scripture that can be used for Picture Study!
