We had our Christmas Party on Sunday night and let the kids do the Nativity Story. I found a cute children’s version with the pictures. My husband was the narrator and then 5 of the older grandchildren read different parts and the two little girls put the pictures up on the magnet board. My DIL played the keyboard, so that we could have help singing the songs. (We are not a very musical bunch!) And all in all I think that it turned out great. Everyone helped and it was not a ton of preparation.
Here is a sample of the pictures, you cut out the individual characters and animals and place them in the different scenes. This also has the script, if you just want to let the children act out the parts!
You can find the link here, if you want to print your own copy. This site has some cute games and ideas for kids.
Now, with all that said, I am now on a hunt to make costumes for next year! If anyone out there has seen any cute costumes, please let me know. I could make them, or I am willing to buy some of them. It is something that we would use for years to come, so I want to make some that will grow a little with the kids.
I love your site! Thanks!
Thank you, I appreciate your support! :)
