The "Key" to Christmas: A Timeless Story for All Time book on disc, is a great way to teach your students about the true meaning of Christmas. The PDF format enables teachers to project the book, page by page, onto a smart board or big screen, so students can follow along as it is being read.
Teachers can read the book in their individual classrooms or at a school-wide assembly. With a little creativity, you can leave a lasting impression on your students. Some ideas to consider . . .
- Play your favorite Christmas songs softly in the background while reading the book.
- Have a student read Lillie's letter to Santa (page 6) and another student read Santa's letter to Lillie (page 18). (You can even have the student dress up like Santa!)
- Have the upper class students read the story to the younger students.
- Have a teacher dress up as "The Spirit of Christmas" and read the book to the students. Then, discuss what they can do to live the "Spirit of Christmas" throughout the year.
Start a new tradition at your school!
The book, illustrated by Dave Pini, comes with a small present similar to the one given to Lillie by Santa. After reading this book with you, the child can also experience the "key" to Christmas by opening the present* included with the book, and using it, as Lillie did, to remind her to live the Spirit of Christmas all year.
The disc comes with a five inch gold key that can be placed on your school's Christmas tree during the Christmas Season. You can decorate your key by using ribbons that represent your school colors. At the conclusion of the Christmas Season, as in the story, the key can be strategically placed by the main exit to remind students to live the "Spirit of Christmas" all year.
Should students want their own personal copy of the book and key, parents can purchase a book/key set for their child and they, too, can make
The "Key" to Christmas a family tradition their homes.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to your school.
Teaching Values . . . Changing Attitudes . . . Building Character
As we struggle through these tough economic times, the solutions to the problems we face are both complex and slow to materialize.

And, when we give of ourselves, our time or our talents without wanting anything in return, good things will come back to us in some form . . . some way . . . some day.
