Nativity




Who would think it would be so difficult to find a Nativity during the Christmas season. I wanted to get a Nativity that the girls could interact with. One that I wouldn't cringe if they touched it and handled it to act out the story of Jesus' birth. Well, I cannot for the life of me find one. They are either very cheap looking or they are super expensive. I was hoping to find one to fit the bill at the Christmas Shoppe that opened in my area recently...no luck. I though that Cotsco or BJs might have one....no luck. Target....nada. And so the search continues. The house is all decorated. The tree is up. Santa can be found at every turn. But no manger awaiting the birth of baby Jesus can be found in this house. There is a Fisher Price one online that I might buy, but I wasn't really looking for a *toy*. Boy, I sound picky don't I????

Oh well.....just trying to keep reminding the girls about the TRUE meaning of Christmas. HO HO HO

My Nativity Set is one made by Precious Moments. The starter kit has all the pieces you want. You can add on to it as you go along, if you choose to. It is not expensive. My grandkids love it because the figures look like kids. I love it, too. I have it placed centered under my tree. It is very special to all of us.
