Christmas can get complicated quickly.
So much fun and chaos gets packed into one month. And the awe and wonder of the incarnation, God becoming man for us, can get lost in the shuffle.
These Christmas Nativity activities are a great way to refocus and open up discussion with your kids about the true meaning of Christmas.
Enjoy, and MERRY CHRISTMAS!
