Christmas Step-by-Step is a simple preschool (Pre-K) Christmas musical that has an interactive narrated script and 6 preschool Christmas songs.

 

Watch your preschoolers walk, run, march, tip-toe, and whirl and twirl their way through the Christmas story with the characters in Christmas Step-by-Step.
. . . Mary and Joseph wear their most comfortable shoes for their many steps on the long trip to Bethlehem
. . . then Joseph surprises Mary with a new pair of slippers for her hot and tired feet!
. . . All of your preschoolers will be the animals in the barn and will sing about the birth of a savior as they flap their wings, swing their tails and nod their heads.
. . . The angels whirl and twirl their ribbons with excitement as they deliver God’s good news to the shepherds and then sing their song of praise to God.
. . . The shepherds can’t help but jump for joy as they share the news of the birth of a savior with everyone they meet.

Christmas step-by-step, Christmas step-by-step,
We will tell the Christmas story step-by-step.
Take a quiet step.  Jesus is asleep.  SH!
Take a noisy step.  There are lots of sheep!  BAA!
Take a singing step.  Angels sing a song.
Take a Christmas step.  You can come along.

Your preschool children will invite everyone to sing with the angels and jump for joy with the shepherds as they celebrate Jesus – God’s gift of a savior to the world . . . the one who promises to be with us where ever we go!

Most successful ever

I wanted to share with you that our preschoolers performed Christmas Step-by-Step and I think it is one of the most successful productions ever of one of your musicals.  What a wonderful story AND music!  The children and teachers (and directors!) loved the songs, and the parents and friends in the audience were delighted by the presentation.

Outstanding

Christmas Step-by-Step was outstanding. We received more compliments, by far, from this year’s play than from previous years. The kids had more fun than ever before and the parents just couldn’t stop commenting on how great it was. Way to go!

Very age appropriate

We did Christmas Step-by-Step and it was great.  Not only was it adorable but it was very age appropriate.  The children picked up on the words in the songs and really sang out.  Thank you.

Easy yet fun

Christmas Step-by-Step was perfect for our Sunday school children.  The preschool girls loved whirling and twirling across the chancel to tell the good news.  I have been looking for music that was easy yet fun to sing and still told the good news.

Easy to use

Your programs are awesome, easy to use with the kids, and the congregation enjoys them very much!  This is our 5th year using your programs and we just want to say “thank you”!
