Birthday Party for Jesus

This year we hosted a Birthday Party for Jesus at our house for our play group friends. First we hunted for puzzle pieces to a nativity puzzle. Then we opened up gifts that told the story of baby Jesus' birth.
We also played a version of pin the tail on the donkey, the kids attempted to put baby Jesus in the manger. We had a pretty young crowd so we basically just let each child come put their baby in the manager. A few of the older kids did try it with a blindfold.
Red Velvet cupcakes- yummy! One of the more exciting moments of the party was when Logan knocked over the Christmas tree. His mommy was helping me with Titus.
Each child got their own candle to blow out as we sang Happy Birthday to Jesus.
Grace got her own special white cupcake.
All the kids eating in our playroom.
Each child got to take home some peppermint play dough with a Christmas shaped cookie cutter. Happy Birthday Baby Jesus!
