Begin your DIY Holiday Ornament by reading The Little Pot
The first step in making your ornament a special yearly addition is to read the story of The Little Pot. Each year, your child will learn that they were created for a special purpose. As they reread the story, they will see how Little Pot searches for its purpose. Likewise, we tend to search for our purpose again and again. So, reading this story over and over is a great reminder of why the potter (God) created us.

Imagine Ways you Grew the Fruit of the Spirit
As Little Pot imagines all the different ways the potter can use it, similarly, your child can reflect on the different ways that our creator has used them. Have your child to think of ways that the fruit of the Spirit has grown through them this year and make a list. In addition, you can download this FREE fruit of the spirit chart to record their answers.
