Nativity Book

My Aunt Elaine came over yesterday and did the neatest project with my girls. Michelle and Ella each made a nativity scrapbook. Elaine had these cute cutout figures of baby Jesus, the wisemen, the shepherds, the star, King Herod and the animals (camels, donkeys, sheep).


The girls got to decide where to put them into the book and also added pictures of themselves to the book. They turned out darling, and the girls had so much fun, and it was a wonderful chance to review the story of the Savior's birth. Each of them will have this wonderful book to look at throughout this holiday season and years to come.

This was so thoughtful. The girls enjoyed the process. Elaine borrowed Michelle's book and Michelle can hardly wait to get it back. Ella and Michelle looked through Ella's several times yesterday and again today.




(The original idea came from www.scrapbook.com and is also featured here.)
