Spreading Christmas joy into the new year

Watch the Christmas story as told by children

One of the greatest joys of working with children is seeing the world through their eyes. It’s why we love this Christmas story, from the U.S.-based Southland Christian Church.

Watch below as children retell the story, as they perceive it. “So the wise men went to Jesus,” explains one child. Another adds: “They gave them gifts, a stuffed animal, like a hippo I have at home.”

At Children Believe, we encourage children to just be kids — kids that are seen and heard by the adults who should be protecting them. Once their rights are realized, they’ll have safer spaces to learn and grow into strong adults with bright futures.

You can help children receive the support they need to reach their dreams. Sponsor a child today.
