Best Christmas Nativity Costumes Ideas For 2017

Christmas is all about the Nativity and schools all around the country stage stories from the bible with children as the actors.

This is an enjoyable means of helping them to interactively learn and understand the stories of the bible. They begin learning the stories and as they are assigned a roll in the play, they begin to learn their lines. Rehearsals begin just after the mid-term break and they are usually ready to stage the show a week or two before their Christmas holidays.

This is a big night in the school and parents are invited along to watch their little darlings turned thespians perform the Christmas story in dance, song and acting.

Best Costume Ideas 

The main costumes used in these performances are outfits worn by characters involved directly in the Nativity story.

Baby Jesus
Holy Mary
Joseph
Wise Men
Shepherds
Donkey
Lambs

While the main story of the evening is usually of the Nativity, there is also singing, dancing and stories of Santa, his reindeers and his helpers, the elves and of course Mrs Claus who keeps them all in order, warm and fed.

Find Nativity Outfits

If you are searching for a Christmas Nativity costume for your child this year, check the styles available online. Costume shops are very specialised and you may not find them in every town. Online shopping is easily done from home and you know exactly the type of outfit to buy after a discussion with your child, who is in school during the day and is probably not available to go shopping with you. Online shopping also allows you to avoid the Saturday crowds while getting the exact outfit delivered directly to your address.

There are great Showmen and Santa costumes for the little tots who are not ready for school yet but who want to be included in the festivities.
