How To Use this Advent Calendar

This online experience is designed to help your family celebrate the Christmas season together. Each day through Christmas day, a new activity will be posted. You don’t have to do every single activity, but take some time each day to count down to Christmas!

Day 5: Hide and Seek

05

The Magi (or wise men) had spent their lives studying, so they knew the star that appeared over Bethlehem would lead them to Jesus. We don’t know much about them, but Matthew 2:1-12 tells us they traveled for a long time to find Jesus. In fact, some people think they were on the road for two years! Check out this video below about their trip. In Jeremiah 29:13, God promises that when we look for him, we’ll find him!

If you have time after you watch, play a game of hide and seek! Then see if you can come up with different ways to look for God. Try talking to God together and asking him to help you find him.

Matthew 2:1-12

Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the reign of King Herod. About that time some wise men from eastern lands arrived in Jerusalem, asking, 2 “Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his star as it rose, and we have come to worship him.”

3 King Herod was deeply disturbed when he heard this, as was everyone in Jerusalem.4 He called a meeting of the leading priests and teachers of religious law and asked, “Where is the Messiah supposed to be born?”

5 “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they said, “for this is what the prophet wrote:

6 ‘And you, O Bethlehem in the land of Judah,
    are not least among the ruling cities of Judah,
for a ruler will come from you
    who will be the shepherd for my people Israel.’”

7 Then Herod called for a private meeting with the wise men, and he learned from them the time when the star first appeared. 8 Then he told them, “Go to Bethlehem and search carefully for the child. And when you find him, come back and tell me so that I can go and worship him, too!”

9 After this interview the wise men went their way. And the star they had seen in the east guided them to Bethlehem. It went ahead of them and stopped over the place where the child was. 10 When they saw the star, they were filled with joy! 11 They entered the house and saw the child with his mother, Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasure chests and gave him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

12 When it was time to leave, they returned to their own country by another route, for God had warned them in a dream not to return to Herod.
