Church Nativity & Easter Plays

Cool Carols is written with churches in mind: a faithful, rhyming retelling of the Bible story with 9 traditional carols given a modern sound, two new songs and optional Bible readings. For younger children, Our First Nativity tells the story with nursery-rhyme-style songs.

Cool Carols and Keeping Mr Inn In The Inn work with just 1 child plus narrators. Our First Nativity, The ABC Nativity and What A Star work with 2. All of them grow to 100 or more, so you won't need to rewrite if numbers change.

Our First Easter Play tells the Easter story gently for young children, E-A-S-T-E-R Spells Easter for Juniors presents it for ages 6–11, and The Donkey’s Tale is a Palm Sunday mini-musical for ages 7–11. For harvest, The Harvest Assembly Collection has two harvest assemblies and six harvest songs, and I Want To Praise has 14 Christian assemblies with songs for the whole year.

Every nativity comes with editable scripts, so you can give longer parts to older children and simple lines, songs or actions to the youngest. Group songs can be shared by any number of children.
