Are you looking for great Bible Christmas crafts for little ones?
Here are free printable manger scenes, Bible nativity sets to color with
coloring pages from the Christmas story. Catholic Icing offers free printable Bible Christmas
coloring pages to make into nativity
sets. Children color characters from the Bible Christmas story. Then they wrap
pictures around paper towel and toilet paper tubes. This makes 3D, standup
manger scenes. The blog owner created eight pages of coloring pages for so kids
can make complete nativity sets and gives permission to print one for
each person so long as you don't sell anything you make with it.
Children might make the entire set all at once or countdown to
Christmas making and adding one new piece each day. Manger scenes have 15 parts
so begin 15 days before Christmas and color one per night. Or begin later in
Advent and add the wisemen and camels in Epiphany (Three Kings Day, Twelfth
Night). Color nativity sets in this order--stable, palm tree, shepherd, sheep,
angel, donkey, Joseph, Mary, Baby Jesus, wiseman, camel. Check out the other
awesome Bible Christmas activities on the website.
Here are more free printable nativity sets and manger scenes (also
called creche or nacimiento). Let children color their manger scenes during
devotions to help them stay focused. Paper Toys is an amazing website

dioramas. Scroll through to find a Chanukah menorah and a gazillion other 3D

Here are free printable nativity sets. Print in color or black
and white and use for Bible Christmas coloring pages. Both manger scenes come
with cut and paste stable, star, manger, Mary, Joseph, Baby Jesus and the three
wisemen. Use free printable manger scenes as a follow up craft activity for
Advent devotions. Catholic families could use nativity sets to pray the Joyful
Mysteries of the Rosary and to countdown to Christmas. Use Magi (three wisemen)
images for Epiphany or Three Kings Day, celebrated on January 6. Many countries
celebrate Christmas and Epiphany. In countries like Spain, Three Kings Day is
the major gift-giving holiday. It is the Magi who are said, by tradition to
bring gifts to children. This makes sense as it was the wisemen who brought
gifts for Baby Jesus.
