Experience Christmas during the War of 1812 through the Christmas story of American Girl Caroline Abbott.
This is a one-week Christmas literature study that follows the third book in Caroline’s series: A Surprise for Caroline.
Good news: you do NOT need to have read the first two books to jump right in! I’ve included a short introduction on each title page, and the books themselves also quickly catch you up.
This study is best for elementary and middle school students, ages 5-12.
Interested in a bundle of eight American Girl Christmas stories? Head to Christmas Hope from 1774 to 1944 with the American Girls.
As you read one chapter of A Surprise for Caroline, open the matching pages in this study to learn about the history of ice skating, have fun with snow craft ideas, color in a Star-Spangled Banner, make a historic recipe, and more!
Fast readers can finish a whole book and then pick their favorite activities, while slower readers can pause after every chapter—there’s no wrong way to enjoy this journey.
So light the tree, pour the cocoa, and get ready to step back in time with Caroline.
This American Girl Christmas Study is perfect for:
- morning basket read-alouds
- Advent family nights
- homeschool history + literature blocks
- Christmas schooling (my favorite)
- cozy and relaxed December afternoons with cocoa in hand
