Why do we celebrate Christmas? Because it is Jesus’ birthday! You can’t spell Christmas without Christ! He is the greatest present of all!
Did you know that you can still visit the “barn” they believe Jesus was born in? It is a cave in Bethlehem. Caves were often used as barns since there were many of them in the area. And a manger is where they would put the food for the animal. So Jesus was laid on the soft hay that the animals would have eaten.
Can you find Bethlehem?
