    The skit introduces a discussion between a teacher and student(s) about the true meaning of Christmas. The student(s) act out popular Christmas activities like relaxing on holidays, decorating trees, and visiting Santa. However, the teacher questions if there is a deeper meaning. Finally, one student presents a large heart with "Jesus" written on it, representing how Christmas celebrates God's gift of love through the birth of Jesus. The heart is then used to distribute smaller hearts to everyone as a symbol of God's gift being for all people. The teacher confirms this reveals the true meaning of Christmas.

    The True Meaning of Christmas,


    written by John Gravley

    MAIN IDEA: introduce discussion about the true meaning of Christmas.

    HELPERS: at least two are needed but more can join.

    SETTING: classroom with teacher and at least one student.

    PROPS: large calendar with Dec. 25th highlighted, Christmas decorations, camera, Santa hat,
    small gift, a sign that says Jesus, a large red paper heart and enough 2 inch red paper hearts
    for the audience.

    SKIT: The Teacher (either a clown or not ... must be able to talk) enters and is followed by
    the Student(s) (one or more clowns).

    "the Teacher”: It is almost Christmas, so today I thought I would ask you if you could tell me
    the true meaning of Christmas.

    “the Student(s)": spend time thinking until finally one pulls out a large calendar with Dec.
    25th marked in red or highlighted so all can see…then the Student(s) act out holiday activities
    (sleeping, eating, playing a game, etc … )

    "the Teacher”: Yes for many people Christmas is a holiday, a time to relax and rest, but I
    think there is more to Christmas ... what do you think?

    "the Student(s)": again spend time thinking then go over to a Christmas tree and place some
    more decorations on it and then have someone take a picture with the student(s) posing next
    to the tree.

    "the Teacher”: Yes there are many pretty decorations at Christmas and it is nice enjoying
    them but there is more to Christmas….

    "the Student(s)": again spend time thinking then put a Santa hat on one of the students or
    the teacher and sit on his/her lap and pretend to be telling Santa what they want. Santa has a
    bag and searches to pull out either and very very small or very very big gift for the one on
    his/her lap.

    "the Teacher”: Yes many people do give and receive Christmas presents. We see Santa
    everywhere and yes Christmas is about giving. But what gift do we really celebrate at
    Christmas?
    "the Student(s)" the student(s) think and finally one pulls out a large red paper heart that
    has been folded to fit in a small pocket. The student unfolds the heart and proudly displays it
    to everyone …

    "the Teacher”: Yes that’s right we celebrate God’s gift of Love at Christmas. We celebrate
    God’s gift of baby Jesus at Christmas.

    "the Student(s)": the student with the big red heart puts the Jesus sign on and gives the
    heart to another student (or teacher if only one student) the person with the big heart now
    finds lots of little red hearts in an envelope taped on one side of the Big heart. All of the
    participants take the little red hearts and give one to every person present. (**Be sure you
    have enough to give everyone!!! This is the symbol of God’s gift that is for EVERYONE!!!)

    "the Teacher”: Yes this is the TRUE meaning of Christmas….

    THE END
