Nativity Playtime


I decided this year that Colin needed his own nativity to manipulate so that he would leave the breakable one alone. He already chewed the head off of my wax turkey candle, so he needed something of his own to gnaw on. I was all prepared to buy the Little People set when we made a trip to our local Lifeway Bookstore. Colin was fixated on the Veggie Tales nativity, and it was $10 cheaper than the Little People set. So guess what we now own?


It's pretty cute -- Jimmy and Jerry Gourd fit into a cow costume to make up one of the animals for the stable. However, we quickly removed the battery from the angel because we couldn't stand to hear her shrill voice sing "Oh Little Town of Bethlehem" over and over and over. He has already spent a few hours moving the nativity pieces from one part of the room to the other. It's definitely a hit!
