Dear Friends, Christmas is a magical season, offering us so much. It is part holiday, family gathering, feast, spiritual event, calendar dates, adventure, and perhaps even attitude. When does it start? When does it end? That depends on you. This activity book is written as a companion for S: Memoir of an Iconic Gentleman. It is designed to be shared with your children. I have added activities, jokes, quotes, and weird facts to keep them entertained. Most activities can be completed with a set of colored pencils or markers. I have also added materials that explore the traditions of Christmas which combine to make this celebration special. While Christmas can often feel like a lot of work, when you think back on Christmases past, you will find a treasury of family traditions and memories. These are precious jewels that can be brought forward to strengthen and keep a family together. Who would not wish for himself or a loved one to fit the description penned by Charles Dickens: "And it was always said of him, that he knew how to keep Christmas well...May that be truly said of us..." So regardless of the calendar date, I wish you a Merry Christmas Your Devoted Friend, S: The Iconic Gentleman Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful. --Norman Vincent Peale
