You'll get the history of the candy cane, the history of the wreath, the history of Santa Claus, history of Hanukkah, history of Kwanzaa, the story of how Rudolph the Red-Nosed reindeer was written and much, much more in the video presentations. To hold a child's attention, I think it is better geared for maybe ages 6 and older clear up to ADULTS. Although it has a definite conservative Christian bent to the 3 - 4 minute presentations, it is by far better than any "candy" advent calendars. I bought it for my two little nieces (ages 4 and 10 - one Catholic and one Jewish) and found it to be both interesting and educational, and my adult non-religious sister wants a copy for herself for next year.

This was surprisingly chock full of information about the Holidays.
I didnt want to stop watching it.
It not only tells about Christmas but other traditions associated for that time of year.
Hannukah, Epiphany, Kwanza, Etc....
I think its a good bye.

We've had this DVD for a few years now. Our boys are 10 and 7. We look forward to watching this every December! It's perfect for busy families (and for moms like me that never have enough time to prepare an advent lesson of my own!)
