We read the Story of Jesus’ birth.
I don’t have any kids, but we work with the kids at church and focus on the birth of Jesus and that he was a gift to us.
We try to teach our 6 year old about the true meaning of Christmas through story books, kid friendly movies and every year a small town about ten minutes from us put on a reenactment where the whole town is transformed into Bethlehem and the “actors/actresses” are dressed for the time frame and they have a “living manger” that they put on for two weeks before Christmas which we go to each year and of everything that we have used to teach the true meaning of Christmas the live reenactment has been the most beneficial for him to learn.
