Shepherds Inside The Diorama

Two shepherds, two sheep, one staff.

 

       Here are two of the shepherds who were in the fields of Bethlehem and followed the light of the great star to the manger. One of them is a grown man and the other a young boy who has carried his pet lamb as a gift to the Christ Child. Together thy form the second picture with which to make your own Christmas crib or creche.
       Color the figures brightly, paste them on cardboard and cut them out in one piece. The big sheep is gray, but the lamb is white.
       So that the figures will stand up, fold forward the center part of the base, and fold back the two end flaps. Then put it away with the angel until you have the whole set.

While shepherds watch'd their flocks by night,
All seated on the ground,
The angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around
