Did you know the first Candy Cane was originally used as a Pacifier to soothe crying babies? Later, a German Choirmaster decided to bend the sugar sticks into the shape of a shepherd’s staff and each tot was handed one as they entered the cathedral during the Christmas pageant in hopes of keeping them quite. Hundreds of years later, a candy maker from Indiana decided to improve on the idea by tying the treats in with the real meaning of Christmas.
The legend of the Candy Cane is just one of many stories in the ADVENTure of Chirstmas by Lisa Whechel. It is chalk full of fun crafts, stories, and etc…to help children find Jesus in many of our Holiday Traditions.
So, we’ve been making these fun little Reindeer Candy Canes for our friends on our street! As I was sharing the story with the girls I pointed out that the red stripes remind us about the blood of Jesus and how he died on the cross for us. I thought this would be easy for them to understand especially since they love singing the song, “Nothing But the Blood of Jesus.”
However, I didn’t realize that Isabella had taken this so literally. So when Elianna started screaming that the peppermint was burning her mouth Isabella told me,
“Mom, get it out of her mouth! It’s the blood!
The blood is burning her!! She doesn’t like the blood…get it out!!”
Awwh…from the mouth of babes! Too funny! I got a big kick out of it and couldn’t help but wonder what God must think of all of this?!!
