This is a super simple foldable for preschool.
I needed a really easy plain review for the preschool class to discuss the gifts the wise men brought to Jesus. This folds in half like a card, so the students liked it. I printed on regular paper. This is black & white only. Click here to download.
A couple of notes to think about as teachers for this Bible lesson found in Matthew 2:1-12
Verse 11: Jesus is now a Young Child, not a Babe (Luke 2:12). He is about probably 1 1/2-2 years old.
Verse 11: Also, the wise men visit Jesus at their house, not the stable (Luke 2:7).
Verse 11: We are told there are three gifts, not how many wise men. It is assumed there were 3 wise men, but the Bible doesn't say that. We know there were at least 2, since verse 11 states they, but there could have been more if any of them brought a duplicate gift.
Also, the visitors are called wise men through the chapter. They are not referred to as kings and we are not told their names.

Thanks so much for making the comments about Jesus not being a baby and we don't know how many wise men there were. So many people want to say "baby" Jesus & three wise men. Thank you!
