natives


We recently acquired this kinetic German nativity, similar to the one that my Grandmother (Nana) owned, which uses the hot air from the ring of candles to move the fins on the top of the spire, turning the central column and the levels of characters.  It's quite charming, and pretty captivating for the children.  (And another way we extend the excitement of the season -- by bringing out the decorations over the course of a week!)

That is so funny. We got one this year, as well.
