Bible Paper Toys – Bethlehem Town

Here a series of booklets to create and assemble a small town to accompany the Nativity Story model.




These houses have been created as an addition to the nativity set but you can also use these buildings for Bible scene display, for teaching and acting out Bible stories. 

With these sets you can assemble the different houses shown on the cover of the booklet but you can also print out several parts again and create new building, combining different pieces. These houses are simple to assemble; though the inn is a little more complex as it consists of several buildings.

First read through the instructions booklet on how to assemble the houses, this cover the basic steps. You can also add other details not include in the booklets to enhance your models.


You can download these booklets here

  5. Hi Didier,
    Thank you so much for these wonderful activities to do with the children!
    I can't download the 3 first books available!
    It asks for some mobile (cellular) phone number and to pay an SMS or something like that.
    Do you know anything about it?
    We live in Colombia, SouthAmerica.
    Thank you,
    Dulce

  7. Hello, I live in France (the seaside town of the Tranche sur Mer, in Vendée, at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean) and I find your paper models absolutely brilliant. My wife is building " nativity town " for the parish and I, mini dino world. Vendée is a French region profoundly anchored in the Christianity and here, Protestants and Catholics live in perfect harmony. Another big BRAVO and thank you for amazing us.

  11. Hi Didier! It's wonderful!! I've spent nearly a month to make my own using your figures, houses, animals, etc. I think you want to see it, so I leave here a link to some photos I took yesterday when I finished it ^^. I hope you also like my version, it has less houses and everything is packed together :P.

    So here is the link ^^

  13. Sungguh sebuah karya yang sangat kreatif. Saya seorang dokter dari Indonesia, negara dengan 20 juta penganut kristiani dan 200 juta sisanya non-kristen. Di negara saya agama masih merupakan hal yang sensitif. Saya berencana akan memajang seluruh diorama ini di klinik saya sehingga pasien terutama anak-anak dapat melihatnya. Saya harap mereka tertarik untuk mengenal Yesus.

    Terima Kasih
    Tuhan Yesus Memberkati.

    What an amazing and creative creation. I'm a doctor from Indonesia where there are 20 millions christian while the remaining 200 millions are non christian. Religion still a sensitive matter here, sometimes the minority discriminated. I plan to put this wonderful diorama somewhere in my own clinic so all the patients especially the kids can see it. Perhaps these can attract or even bring children, christian or nonchristian, to know Jesus. I'm gonna tell my fellow christian doctor to do the same.

    Thank You.
    God Bless You.

  14. Parabéns Sr. Didier, que trabalho lindo! Deus lhe deu grandes talentos! Que bom que os usa para abençoar vidas! Deus lhe concederá uma colheita farta! "dai, e dar-se-vos-á; boa medida, recalcada, sacudida, transbordante, generosamente vos darão;" (Lucas 6, 38). Fique na paz de Cristo,
    Silvana.

    1. thank you for your note.
      About the paper, for most parts, I use card stock paper (110 LB) or Bristol (180 grams) mat, non glossy, for other parts such as clothes material, I used normal paper, otherwise it is a little thick to fold.

  32. I am in the process of building the Inn (house 5), I think there's a mistake on BEAM A & B though. In the download, they are white on the ends but in the photo you show of the building they look like wood like BEAM C & D. I'm trying to decide right now whether to go ahead and use BEAM A & B as printed or print the others to use instead. I hate to waste paper and ink but I really want the building to look nice! I suppose I could print the other page and use the extra pieces somewhere on the Inn but that will also use time that could be used to make things for family members Christmas gifts too. Something to think about before I finish making the building but I thought you should know about the mistake so it could be corrected.
