We made cribs at Christmas time. We made the cribs out of old shoe boxes and cereal boxes. We got sticks and hay for the ground. We made the people out of air dough. We let them dry for the day, then we painted the crib and the people.

There were four cribs. Each crib had its own style. Each crib had all the main people and a few animals. We put the angel on the top of the cribs. Some cribs had stars on them.

We put the cribs outside the room on a bench, so when people walked by our classroom, they would see them.

Overall the cribs looked very nice and other people loved them as well. After a few weeks we raffled the cribs and the people. It took a long time to make the cribs but they turned out nice.
