Traffic Jam in Bethlehem!

I love Little People!  No, I'm not talking about the short-statured folks who are on TLC.  I mean the Fisher Price Little People toys.  They're so cute and they let toddlers use their imagination in such a fun way.  


Last week I found a Little People manger scene.  I got it to keep at my house for all  the grandkids to play with.  


I had it set up on their table to play with when Will & Ben came over last Friday.  They thought it was great & immediately started playing with it.  And because they are so polite, thanking me for it over and over again.










Then Carolann and Adeline came over, & eveybody got to play with it:



Apparently the Little People Manger Scene was a big hit with all!



But today, Will took it another step and combined two Little People playsets to make one exciting time in Bethlehem.

First baby Jesus got a ride in a taxi, driven by a Little Person, apparently fresh from a vacation in Hawaii.



Then there was almost an accident caused by the taxi (which is now carrying either Joseph or a shepherd)  crashing into a manger where the animals were trying to eat.  Also, one of the Wise Men is hopping in for a helicopter ride.  



Here's an aerial view of what's going on in Will's version of Bethlehem:



And for the grand finale, Santa joins Baby Jesus & everyone meets up at the stable!





The greatest thing about Little People is the precious little people who play with them!
It's going to be a great Christmas season!
