Little Dutch Nativity Play Box
Pickup currently unavailable at Kiddie Country
Setting out the nativity is a tradition many families return to each December, and the Little Dutch Nativity Play Box lets the youngest members of the family take part. It is a wooden nativity set designed to be picked up and played with, with every figure scaled for small hands and painted in the soft, muted tones Little Dutch is known for.
When the season draws to a close, the complete scene packs back into its keepsake box, ready to return next year. It looks as much at home on a sideboard as it does on a play mat, and becomes a quiet anchor for the season's rituals.
Begin a December ritual alongside the Advent Train Track, or add the Christmas Stocking for Christmas morning.

Why we love the Nativity Play Box
We see this as a family piece rather than a seasonal toy. A young toddler may simply carry the figures from room to room, while an older child will begin to tell the story in their own words. Few Christmas gifts become more meaningful with each passing year, and this is one of them.
It also gives a curious toddler a nativity of their own to handle, rather than one they are asked not to touch.

FAQs
What age is the Little Dutch wooden nativity set suitable for?
From 18 months. Younger toddlers enjoy holding and carrying the figures, and the storytelling side tends to emerge from around two and a half to three.
How is the nativity stored after Christmas?
The play box doubles as its storage, so the whole scene stays together until next December.
Does my toddler need supervision while playing?
For younger children, yes. Because the set includes small parts, an adult should supervise children under three.
Is it a good present for a baby's first Christmas?
It is best suited to a child who is walking and starting to talk. For a newborn, it can be given as a keepsake to bring out in a year or two.
