Sensory Fun in the Stable
 
CHRISTMAS IN THE STABLE is the traditional story of baby Jesus in the manger with the added sensory learning. The tactile stimulations are on the donkey, in the hay, the baby blanket, and sheep’s wool. The illustrations are soft and cute which would make this a good bedtime story for the Christmas season.

I love the flow of the writing style and how easy it is too read. The rhyming scheme is an added bonus. A good example: “Lambs baa, Shepards peek. Kittens purr, Mice squeak.” For those wanting a religious Christmas story should certainly consider this book as a stocking stuffer. Not only does it stick to the traditional story and the author’s technique is amazing, but it also has that sensory learning added in. I really like the items they chose to incorporate into the “touch-and-feel” because it’s items children will get a kick out of touching.

Final Verdict: CHRISTMAS IN THE STABLE brings in both tactile stimulation and a great introduction to the birth of Jesus for young children. Those who want a religious story that their children can fall in love with should certainly pick up this book. My little girl loved touching each page and wanted me to read it to her over and over again.
