About the Little Lamb: I have come to your home from a land far away to tell you a true story. It's a story of something that happened in my little town many years ago..."
The Little Lamb from Bethlehem tells the story of Jesus's miraculous birth from the perspective of one of the lambs in the stable on that sacred night. The lamb loved baby Jesus, and as they both grew, the lamb promised to share Christ's story with everyone. Now the Little Lamb can teach your family about the Savior's life and share ways to follow His example and serve others throughout the Christmas season. Make Christmas more meaningful as you use this little plush lamb to learn of the Savior, serve others, and celebrate the true spirit of the season with this new Christ-centered tradition!
Bring your lamb home today to begin a Christmas tradition that your children will remember for years to come!
Ideas to get started:
Once a week leading up to Christmas, invite a new friend to dinner with your family, and share Little Lamb's story of the Savior with them.
Include the lamb in the nativity scene you act out with your family.
Create a photo album with the Little Lamb as you take it to do service at a nursing home.
Read Luke 2:13-14.
Designed to fit your family's needs!

Or choose to use the lamb as a simple reminder of the season.
More ideas:
Give the Little Lamb a note every day expressing love for a family member, and leave hi for that family member to find.
Each Sunday during December, give the Little Lamb a favorite scripture to hold during the day and then read it with your family that night.
Read John 13:15 and talk about the ways to be the kind of person Jesus would be.
Hang a stocking for Jesus and fill it with notes for Him.

My review: Have you seen this little guy in the store? Our youngest spotted him at Deseret Book over General Conference weekend and he just had to have him. Quite honestly, I wasn't wanting to fork out the $27 for him, so I was thrilled when I won him from my local Deseret Book a few weeks ago.
I like the idea of this way better than an elf on a shelf. This one doesn't need any hiding and every member of the family can participate. I love the idea of our kids doing special service for each other and leaving the lamb as a symbol of that.
I liked the cute book that came with this. Our kids enjoyed the pictures and the simple story that went with it. I am hoping to use this lamb in conjunction with the #lighttheworld initiative this Christmas.
I won a Little Lamb from Bethlehem from Deseret Book.
