Christmas nativity craft

This was a fun craft to make with the kids. The instructions in Catholic Schoolhouse Art Year 2 was to paint plain popsicle sticks. I already had colored ones so I let them make their stable any color they wanted. I used blue for Mary since she is often painted in blue clothing. Green seemed a good color for Joseph. Yellow for Christ since He is the Light.

Hope ya'll are having a Blessed Advent. I love the prayer for week 1.

O Emmanuel, Jesus Christ,

desire of every nation,

Savior of all peoples,

come and dwell among us.
