Ostheimer Nativity Set with Diorama
Ostheimer’s nativity sets will become family heirlooms in many families.
Many fond memories are made with the tradition of bringing out the box in early December each year to rediscover the familiar figures and set them up with care on the diorama setting. Young children enjoy seeing the story develop over the month: perhaps bringing out first the shepherds, sheep to be placed on the outer, with the ox and empty manger in the centre; then Mary and Joseph appearing with the donkey the day before; then on Christmas morning the children will delight in seeing the baby has arrived! on Xmas morning the children may place the shepherds and sheep a bit closer to pay their respects.
The story can be made more elaborate over time with the (separately available) addition of Kings and their animals; Angel figure; wooden stable with star; there are many Ostheimer nativity figures, sold individually to select from to tailor your own family collection.
