Let Elsie help you throw the party of the century (the 19th century!) Elsie's Christmas Party helps you celebrate Christmas today in the spirit of yesterday. From decorating a pretty table and tree to parlor games and recipes, this book is a step-by-step guide to creating you own old-fashioned Christmas celebration. You'll learn what Christmas was like in the nineteenth century when Elsie Dinsmore was growing up. You'll also learn about Victorian Christmas customs and how they developed into some of our most treasured modern traditions. And you'll learn how to plan a party that is perhaps a little more formal than the parties you usually attended. It may take a bit of extra work, but an old-fashioned party can be a rewarding way to delight your friends and family and have a taste of what life was like in the past.
Elsie's Christmas Party is also the perfect companion to the Elsie Dinsmore: A Life of Faith book series. Let Elsie Dinsmore, one of the most beloved fictional heroines of all time, bring Victorian charm into your life this Christmas! Recommended for ages 10 and up.
