We've been reading Where is Christmas, Jesse Bear? ~ and it sparked an idea in my mind about enjoying Christmas through a luncheon tea party that touched all the senses. Since my little ladies love having tea parties, this didn't take much convincing!
Taste: delicious lunch, yummy cookies for dessertSight: make things beautiful, something for the table, something from the yard, pretty dishes
Sound: listened to The Nutcracker
Smell: lit a vanilla candle and smelled our yummy food
Touch: did a craft together after lunch was over
Foam gingerbread houses were a gift from a ballet friend -the ladies had a great time decorating these! What a fun gift!
How do you involve all of your senses during this special season?Or, is that a new thought that you'll be pondering this week?

How neat! You have got to be the most creative person I know.
Great photos of a fun tea party!
Love, Mom
So much to gaze at in these pics. They were a feast for my eyes.
I love to address all of the senses, especially since my son has dealt with sensory processing dysfunction in the past.
I adore the table cloth that appears to be embroidered. Is that a family heirloom?
How sweet! My girls love when we sit together for afternoon tea. I may have to pull out some linens and flowers to make it extra special next time. Beautiful pictures!
what a great idea!! i will be thinking about some ways to incorporate the senses with my kids...!!
What lucky little ladies you have to be invited to such an exquisite event!
What a lovely idea... I had a similar idea and had a Christ-centered tea a few weeks back... I could have used some of your ideas! ~ kim
Love the felt gingerbread houses! How fun.
That pink cookie looks gorgeous, albeit I would totally still eat it!
