Luke 2:16 · with Mila the Mouse
Free printable · Ages 4–8 · 1 page
There was no room in the inn, so Mary and Joseph have found shelter in a stable. Mary rests on the straw after the long journey, and Mila the mouse carries her little bundle away from the door to make more room for the guests.
“…because there was no room for them in the inn.”
Luke 2:7, simplified
5-minute idea: Ask: Mila gave up a bit of her cozy corner. Where could you make room for someone this week, at the table, in a game, on the couch? Children draw one more thing Mila could share in the empty space.
