The Nativity Set i purchased was a gift for my Grandchildren, my grandson, age 7 and my granddaughter, age 3. i purchased the Nativity after my granddaughter asked me who is Jesus?. My order came very quickly and the three of us unpacked the box and I showed them both each character and explained who they were and read the story of Jesus birth from the Bible. i am thankful that i was given the opportunity to tell my grandchildren who Jesus is. Please pray that i will be given the opportunity to take my grandchildren to Church and Sundsy School

I am about to buy my 4th set. 1st set started disappearing, and i found Mary, Joseph and the baby at one grandchild's house, and 3 wise guys and the camel at another grandchild's house. So both households got their own sets and i have mine back. Now, after 4 years of play, and a puppy that loved baby Jesus a little too much, mamaw needs to retire what is left and get another set (baby Jesus needs a face). The set is tough, well painted, durable (does not resist puppy teeth) and well loved by all ages. Great way to teach the story without being "preachy". Good size to fit in Fisher Price toys.

I purchased this so my 2 year old granddaughter could interact with a nativity scene other than my ceramic one. It is one of her favorite things at my house. She counts and sorts the Kings and shepherds, places baby Jesus in the manger, gathers the animals around the hay to eat as well as standing them on it. When she first took it out of the box not even a month ago i told her the names of all the characters and their role in the story of our Savior's birth. She is able to relay much of it to me. i highly recommend this. This is not something we will only have out at Christmas.

Our grandkids enjoyed this nativity. Yes, the camel doesn't stand on his own but the kids set him in some play dough..voila! This set is perfect for young children.

I've ordered two of these Nativity sets for my grandchildren. It has about 17 pieces that include all the main people who take part in the Christmas story, and all are very attractively painted. It's fun to see my grandchildren arranging and rearranging all the characters. This was also the most reasonably priced children's Nativity set I could find. The pieces are plastic and will probably last many years.
