Childrens Nativity Costumes

The Christmas story is most commonly told in a nativity play with children playing the parts of the various characters. Some of the most popular children's nativity costumes are Joseph, Mary, shepherds, the Three Wise Men and angels.

Joseph usually plays an important lead role in a nativity play. This is a children's Joseph costume:

Mary plays a lead alongside Joseph, and some may argue has a more important symbolic role in the Christmas story. Here is a children's costume for Mary:
