Star trail

Beforehand, stick stars around the space or building, and signposts that point one way to Jerusalem and the other to Bethlehem. Tell the story on the move as the children follow the trail. Follow the signpost to Jerusalem but notice that there are no stars this way, so reroute to find the stars again.
