Nativity acrostic poem
Never forget what happened
All those years ago
The way in which Jesus came
Into the world
Very small
In Bethlehem
Two thousand years later
You celebrate-it’s Christmas
Now you try, you could use any word or even have a go and write one using the letters that are above: Nativity.

Pause for Thought
Sometimes after Christmas, when it’s the start of a new year, people think about the year ahead and make new year’s resolutions. People might say they will take more exercise or keep their room tidy but often within a few weeks they forget and they go back to their old ways. Perhaps you could write something that you will do on a piece of card, decorate it and put it in your room or somewhere where you will see it each day and be reminded of it. Perhaps your new year’s resolution will last longer.
