Nativity sets come in all shapes and sizes. In our home, we have several - a beautiful Willow Tree set, a plaster set, made by disabled ex service personnel, a chunky plastic set (from Avon) that the children loved to play with, a playmobil Nativity and, this year's addition - a rubber duck nativity set. Perhaps not in the best taste, but lots of fun. Each in their own way portray the Christmas story, of love born in lowly places, for ordinary people - even those with a warped sense of humour!
We got the ducks last year. My kids played with them all year long. Now we can't find them. Some people are just as happy about that, but I thought they were fun.
