How To Use This Nativity I Spy Printable
This printable is super easy for you to use, just choose the design that you want and print as many copies as you need.
Choose one of the nativity themed items to start with such as the star and color all of these in, count up the number of them that you colored in and write the amount in the corresponding box at the bottom of the page.
Do this for each of the items until all of the items on the worksheet are colored in and counted.
Ideas for Sunday School and Classroom Use
You could use this nativity worksheet after reading the Christmas story to help children learn the different characters, it could be used as a quiet time activity or as an activity for early-finishers or you could use it as a way to open discussions about the nativity such as how do you think Mary felt?
Ways to Simplify for Younger Children
If coloring in every item on this printable is a bit much for your child then by all means skip that and just count the nativity pictures instead. Likewise if your kid enjoys coloring but needs a bit of help with counting then you can give them a hand with that.
