Printable Nativity Craft for Kids, Color AND Black & White Coloring Versions, Stand Up Paper Nativity Scene, Christmas Bible Sunday School

BOTH VERSIONS INCLUDED: a ready-to-print full-color set AND a black & white coloring set, each in US Letter and A4 (4 PDFs).

Build your own little Bethlehem! My Little Nativity is a printable paper craft with 12 sweet cut-out figures and a fold-out stable. Kids color (or use the ready-color edition), cut out each figure along its smooth white border, glue on a little easel stand, and set up the Christmas story one piece at a time.

★ WHAT YOU GET
• 12 cut-out stand-up figures, each with its own triangle easel stand: Mary, Joseph, Baby Jesus in the manger, an angel, a shepherd with his lamb, three wise men (gold, frankincense and myrrh), a donkey, a cow, a camel and a sheep
• A fold-out stable backdrop (about 10 in wide) with fold-forward side wings
• Stable braces plus 4 spare figure stands
• "The First Christmas" story page with Luke 2:7 and 2:11 (Douay-Rheims), a set-up-in-order guide and talk-about-it questions
• A how-to-build page
• Two editions: ready-color and coloring (black & white)
• Each edition in US Letter and A4 — 4 PDFs, 7 landscape pages each

★ SIZE
People stand about 3½ inches tall; the animals and Baby Jesus are a little shorter. The stable is about 10 inches wide.

★ HOW IT WORKS
1. Print at Actual Size / 100% (not "fit to page").
2. Color the coloring edition with crayons, markers or colored pencils.
3. Cut out each figure on the gray dashed line — the name strip at the bottom is its base.
4. Cut out its stand, fold the glue tab, and glue it to the back of the figure.
5. Fold the stable wings forward and add the braces.
6. Read the story and build your scene — save the wise men and camel for Epiphany!

★ BEST PAPER
White cardstock (65-110 lb / 176-300 gsm) is sturdy and stands best. Regular printer paper works for coloring, but the figures won't stand as well.

Grown-up help with scissors is recommended for little hands.
