One of the biggest problems faced by teachers working with very young children at Christmas is how to involve pre-readers in the nativity play with the minimum of fuss and manageable preparation. This book offers three very diverse plays, each telling the story of the first Christmas from a different perspective, using well known nursery rhyme tunes to bring the storyline to life. Simple directions, props and costumes ensure that the children are given the opportunity to participate fully in the performance. The material has been field tested with reception age children, and the book includes music notation and photocopy permission.
