Here is a great activity to share from Felisa Cepeda from Mater Dolorosa Parish in South SF.  She wrote
"I wanted to share with you the wheat planting family activity the we are doing this year."

Instructional video for family to watch before planting their seeds:

Thank you for sharing this idea - I LOVE IT.  "Many of the families are excited to help it grow and curious as to what we will be using it for in December. I can't wait to tell them about it in Advent!!"

The secret is that if you plant the seeds on Dec. 13 and care for them well you have wheat for Baby Jesus' crib.  You may want to include this in your program. 

Felisa, thank you for sharing.
