November catch-up: Little People Nativity

Caleb got a special Christmas surprise a little early from Grandma McKinstry this year - a Little People Nativity set. He received it the weekend after Thanksgiving and has played with it quite a bit since. He particularly likes the animals. There is an angel that goes on the top and it spins when you move the star on the front of the stable. Caleb likes to give all the people and animals a turn spinning on the roof too.

I think it was a great idea! Last year we decided we want to start a yearly tradition of reading the Christmas story every Christmas morning. Now we have a great tool for helping Caleb to understand the reason for Christmas and making the story come alive.
