Advent Theater House
4. Characters designed after animals native to the region, adding touch of whimsy.
The concept and art really are beautiful and interesting. Some of my favorite nativity art I’ve ever seen. My one concern is that the design of the actual pieces and structure could use improvement. I was hoping to use this for more than just this year, but the flaps connecting the back of the stage to the front are already coming apart after being folded. The most frustrating part, however, is that many of the characters/pieces can’t stand on their own. The bases aren’t snug enough, and the bottom of the pieces don’t align or aren’t wide enough to stand. This can be especially frustrating for kids who want to help set up the scenes and participate. The star/narrator is especially impossible to use with the stand. Also, some of the cutting on the pieces was off—one of the birds in a background scene falls out completely because the legs aren’t actually cut out of the cardboard.
However, the idea is great and the packaging is also beautiful. It arrived quickly and I love the choice of stories. I love how open-ended it is and I love the colors. Truly could be an outstanding product with some changes!
I bought this for our kids and they can’t wait to open it up for Advent. Just like everything else from story makers it looks beautiful.
Love this gorgeous and fun theatre house! Meaningful way to connect to the Advent season.
Friends,
You will not go wrong snatching up this adorable Advent theatre set for your littles or your bigs! My teenagers were thrilled with the gorgeous packaging and contents the second we opened it. I am so excited to explore the season together at home with them and in church with my Children’s chapel and youth group. We will give one away at our Advent kick-off as well. This is a gem of a resource! Thanks to StoryMakers for coming through once again with groundbreaking youth resources.
LOVE IT!! So cute, clever, and creative! My daughter loves this set and plays for hours with it. THANK YOU, STORYMAKERS!!!!
