How do I tell the Christmas Story to Kindergarteners?

Question

I was assigned a project for my Bible class where I have to teach the Christmas/Nativity story to a Kindergarten class. Any ideas on how I can tell it at their level and keep their attention?

Answer 1

A little Christmas music in the background may help. Story interaction (kids can dress up and act out the scene as it's being narrated).

Answer 2

give them something to  eat like popcorn, cookies when they are eating tell them their story.

Answer 3

Get a children's book with nice pictures and the story told in simple words.  You can read and stop to show the pictures. Have one for my grandchildren they love it.

Answer 4

Kids love to hold toys. Bye sturdy figures mentioned in the story. Pass them around, start talking about them, asking if anyone knows them, and then start the story.

Answer 5

involve the children by using puppets or dressed up soft toys to act out the story. Keep it simple
