Choose several Christmas songs from the Primary Songbook and print the titles on strips of red, green and white paper. (Choose at least 5 or 6 songs.) Then make at least 20 to 40 more strips in those colors and leave them blank.
Tell the children the Jesus gave us the greatest gift when he was born. What gift can we give to Him in return? Ask the children to think of something they can do that would make Jesus happy. Suggestions might include: help Mom, be kind to a neighbor, sister or brother, write a note to Grandma or Grandpa, rack leaves or shovel snow, etc.
Tell the children that they can each pick a strip of paper. If a song is written on it, they will sing the song. If it is blank, they must tell one thing that they can do to show their love for Jesus. Have tape easily available to tape the links together. See how long the chain will be by the end of singing time.
