True Meaning of Christmas Double Play - Christian Church Skit for Children
What's better than a skit teaching little kids about the true meaning of Christmas? Two, of course! I was asked if I could write a skit for our Birthday Party for Jesus. It went over very well, so I was asked to write another skit a couple of years later.
Both of the skits have the same purpose of presenting the true meaning of Christmas. They were written for a Christian, Lutheran (Missouri Synod) church activity, though I'm sure they would work fine for your church without much effort. These

Philadelphia Constitutional Convention Skit Play Student Engagement GUARANTEED
This play/skit is perfect for any middle school or high school student learning about the framing of the US constitution. (Several main characters have multiple lines, while other characters have just one line or two so this can accommodate all sorts of different personalities in your classroom) How the delegates there squabbled with each other almost every day for 4-5 months.

Christmas Christmas Program - "Who's the Best?"
Every year, believers bemoan the secularization of Christmas. The peripheral has become central and the central focus – Jesus – has been pushed to the edges of our celebration. The whole point of Christmas is that God, seeing our hopeless sin, sent a Savior to become one of us – true God, true man – to live and eventually suffer and die to take the punishment for our sin. This program was initially presented by a Christian elementary school which included grades Pre-Kindergarten through 8th grad

This is not your typical Christmas program. There are no costumes and no nativity scenes.

Through narration that takes the congregation through the Christmas story and the poems and songs of 4 groups of students (aged 3-14), the four messages from the manger are shared -- fear not, God chose you, God guides you, and God is with you.
