The 3/4 waltz beat of this song, with it’s accent on the first beat of the bar, followed by 2 weaker beats, is the highlight of this song, musically.

Away In A Manger is the perfect song for acting out the Nativity Scene.

Children can play the roles of Mary, Joseph, cows, sheep and shepherds and even angels. A baby doll can be used for baby Jesus.

Alternatively, the characters could be portrayed on a felt board as the children sing the song.

Teaching Points: 3/4 waltz beat, drama, storyboard, felt board, traditional Christmas song.
