Interactive Nativity Trail

           

Welcome to the Church of Ireland Children & Families Ministry interactive video trail.

Our trail encourages families to hear the Christmas story from a different perspective. Each stop has a video that can be played on mobile devices. You hear from Mary, Joseph, Elizabeth and others, acted out in short monologues that help us to imagine what it was like that first Christmas.

The videos explore the emotions and questions each character may have experienced – the joys, the doubts, and the fear even. It brings the whole narrative to life and encourages families and friends to chat together.

The trail includes posters that can be printed as A4 pages and laminated or professionally printed as A3 onto plastic or Corriboard and placed around the Church yard – to access the videos participants simply scan the QR code on the first poster. Each stop has practical activities too for all ages to try so it’s not purely digital.

Download the A4 trail by clicking the Donkey image below.

Download the ready-to-print version (can be printed as A3) with crop marks and bleed by clicking the sheep.
