Christmas: The Nativity (2)

Prayer:

Song: "Away in a Manger" Children's Songbook page 42. We did Away in a Manger Actions while singing this song together.

Nativity Finger Puppets: Using our Nativity Finger Puppets (Easton loves these!), we told the story of the Jesus' Birth. Ours are a little different than the ones below, but I really like both sets.


Nativity Handprint Craft: Please choose one of the options below:

Option One - Baby Jesus in a Manger Handprint Art: I found a similar idea on Crafty Morning. I love any type of handprint craft! We used yellow construction paper for the straw, but you could also use yellow yarn or paint. 


Option Two - Three Wise Men Handprint Art: This is another darling craft option using Easton's handprint. I painted his hand with brown tempera paint and he stamped it three times on a piece of white card stock. We used his fingerprints to make the wise men. Afterward, we glued on goggle eyes for the camels and a yellow star (cut out from paper) in the sky. I found this idea on Mrs. Karen's Preschool Ideas
