Day 17: Suffer the Little Children to Come Unto Me
Start using your Christmas Countdown Book on December 1st. Today would be presented on December 17th. There will be a different subject for each day until Christmas Day, December 25th. The purpose of this Christmas Countdown Book is to help you remember and focus on Jesus Christ during the Christmas season!

Scripture
5 And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
16 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.

Ornament
To personalize the story for my kids, I took a clear globe ornament and put their name on it with foil stickers. I got the inspiration from pizzazzerie.
