Twice a month I get to work with the girls in our church who are 8-11 years old. The program is called Activity Days and we do all sorts of fun projects and activities! I LOVE being able to work with them. We have a great time. We wanted to do a nativity crafts for kids and am totally thrilled with what we came up with! This would be a great project for youth groups too!

Easy Nativity Wall Hanging Craft for Kids and Teens

These nativity wall hangings are 6″ big. The perfect size to hang on the wall or in the tree. And they were SO easy to make and the girls had a great time adding their stickers. Each wall hanging turned out different. Some had 2 sheep, others had 1, the star was placed in different spots as well as the angels.

Another idea would be to give the kids each a take home kit with a plaque to hang on the wall and a sticker sheet and have them add one sticker each day leading up to Christmas. There are 14 stickers.

Either way, it’s a quick and easy kit for kids and would look so cute on an entryway wall.

Supplies

  • Wooden Squares
  • Vinyl Stickers
  • Baker’s Twine

How To Assembly Nativity Wall Hangings

Instructions

You can purchase  unfinished wood plaques and nativity vinyl stickers on Oriental Trading. The unfinished wooden plaques come in packages of 12 and the vinyl in packages of 24. The vinyl is marketed for using on mason jars to create nativity luminaries. I wanted something a bit more affordable for 15 girls than mason jars and the wood plaques (12 for $4.99) fit the bill!

The stickers are reposition able so it was easy to rearrange until the perfect scene was created.

There were plenty of stickers to choose from on each sheet. Two angels, two camels, two sheep, etc. The girls didn’t need to use them all. They could opt for a nativity scene without the wisemen, or find a way to squeeze them in.

We added a strand of bakers twine through the pre-drilled holes and it was complete!
