In one of our schools, the C3 Church Scripture Teacher gave out a little Christmas card with a Christmas-themed pencil to each child. She wrote each child's name on the card with the same text, 'Happy Jesus Birthday Celebrations to You and the very best for the year to come'. Each child wanted her to read their card, even though the text was the same because they wanted to hear their own name! When she said towards the end of the class that they all can take their class workbooks home, they got so excited, it was almost as if Christmas had come early; so very cute. Many children in our schools come from families with less financial means; they seem to appreciate the little things so much.
