Christmas Pageant

Christmas Pageants are an age old tradition. They are a great way to teach the Christmas story. Parents and Grandparents love to watch as the children act out the nativity scene and dress as the holy family, angels, shepherds, wise men and stable animals. The sound of Christmas carols being sung by children is a joy of the season.

Here are some ideas to help you put on a memorable Christmas Pageant that both kids and adults will enjoy.

Christmas Pageant Scripts

Instant Christmas Pageant - The Mouse's TaleChoosing a script for your Christmas Pageant can be a little challenging. You want something that tells the true story of Christmas yet is fresh and interesting for today's audiences and performers. The Instant Christmas Pageant series is a great choice for small to medium sized groups. The Mouse's Tale is a complete nativity focused story with music and pre-recorded performances on cd. You just add kids who can act out the parts and sing the carols along with the congregation. No line memorization is required since all speaking parts are on the disk but if you like you can just use the music tracks and perform the script if your group has the time and talent to do so.
