Lenten Activities

This year in addition to our "Crown of Thorns" (see last year's post) we did a tree.  When the children do something extra they are able to put their name on a leaf and glue it to our bare tree. Thus at the end of Lent our tree will be full of leaves as if Spring came!  The children are so excited about this activity and have been doing lots of extras to help put leaves on the tree.  And with a new baby in the house there have been lots of opportunities to do things to help out.  So, what do you think? :)
