Nativity Center Ideas

This week we are expanding our “Nativity” Theme printables. 

Below you’ll find some fun independent ideas that you can use in centers.

Pretend Play

We have the Fisher-Price Little People Nativity set (pictured below) that we pull out each year.  The boy loves to play with it.

Fisher-Price has updated it recently, so you can find the new set on their site.

Arts & Crafts

DLTK Bible has quite a selection of coloring pages that you could include in an independent center.  Coloring is a great way to also work on fine motor development.

Magnet Pages

Making Learning Fun has a variety of magnet pages available that fit our theme.

Go grab them at Making Learning Fun.

You can use several different things with your magnet pages. Do-a-Dot Paints work great, but then you’ll only get one use out of them.  I recommend laminating the pages and using Bingo Chips, Power Magnets or homemade pom-pom magnets with them.

Hope these ideas are helpful during this busy season.
