A Christ-Centered Christmas, Day 6

Activity: With your family, act out the nativity story. Or you could do it with neighbors for Family Night, or with extended family members. Even if it's just your own little family, you can add props and act the essential parts. Kids will have fun gathering the wardrobe and props! Older children can be the "playwrite," with stage cues, etc.

Quote: “In each of us there is at Christmastime something of our childhood. We all revel in the fun of Christmas—of giving and receiving tinseled presents, of singing favorite carols, of feasting on goodies we never miss at other seasons, of gathering together as family and friends, all having a wonderful time. But there is something else, something better, and that is to sit together as families and read again the fascinating story of the birth of Jesus, who was born in Bethlehem of Judea.” Gordon B. Hinckley, New Era, Dec 2007, 2–5
