Cradle for the King is an uplifting tradition that strengthens the family bond, teaches Christian values, and underscores the meaning of Christmas.

Through the book included in the set, children witness a family who joyfully exhibits the spiritual gifts in Galatians 5:22-23.

By using positive reinforcement and connection during the season and acknowledging your children's good deeds, you turn a stressful time into a more peaceful and blessed occasion.
