Nativity Craft for Kids ~ Popsicle Stick Manger
Christmas is one of my favorite holidays. I love creating Christmas crafts with the kids, especially ones that involve the nativity. Today we are making a classic nativity craft that uses material you probably have on hand. Brings me right back to my Sunday School days, sitting in the basement of our church.

Materials Needed:
- Popsicle Sticks
- Raffia
- Scissors
- Glue ~ you may want to use hot glue to hold the manger together.
- Brown and Tan Paper
Glue the popsicle stick manger together. White glue totally works, but you may want to use a hot glue gun to make things go a little quicker.
Glue the brown paper triangle onto the popsicle stick manger.
Next have the kids draw a face on a circle that represents baby Jesus, and glue it onto the manger.
Glue raffia to the ends of the popsicle sticks to make the tree hanger. Also glue a few snippets of Raffia to the manger to represent the straw.
