Have you shared the Legend of the Candy Cane with your children?
One dark November night a stranger rides into a small prairie town. Who is he? Why has he come? The townspeople wish he were a doctor, a dressmaker, or a trader. But the children have the greatest wish of all, a deep, quiet, secret wish.
Then a young girl named Lucy befriends the newcomer. When he reveals his identity and shares with her the legend of the candy cane, she discovers fulfillment of her wishes and the answer to her town’s dreams. Now will she share what she has learned?
This delightful story will help your children connect to the real meaning of Christmas, and the activities I’ve gathered together will help make the book come alive in new ways with each activity.
Use these fun resources that match up with The Legend of the Candy Cane to fill your home and homeschool with fun! Create a unit study or just have fun with a different activity each day in December!
This year, don’t let the candy cane be a meaningless decoration at Christmas or just another piece of candy to be eaten and enjoyed. This year, every time you see a candy cane, remember the true meaning of Christmas and share it with someone else.
I want a candy cane too! Everyone loves a candy cane-but it’s easy to overlook the meaning of this familiar Christmas tradition in all the hustle and bustle of the season. This sweet story reminds little ones that the candy cane represents Jesus’ birth and the gospel message too.
