Someone Has a Birthday: Preschool Christmas Musical (Program, Play, Pre-K)

Someone Has a Birthday

A simple preschool Christmas musical play designed especially for children ages 3 to 7 which includes an original narrated script & 6 Christmas songs for preschoolers.

The angels will handle the invitations, the shepherds will clean and decorate the manger, the wisemen will take care of the presents, and the star will lead us all to a barn in Bethlehem at Christmas where Someone Has a Birthday . . . . . Jesus! Your preschoolers will enjoy acting out the parts, singing the songs and ringing the bells as they celebrate Jesus' birthday with a Christmas party at the manger.

Someone Has a Birthday includes:
1) an original narrated script (10 - 25 of your preschoolers get to act, but don't have to say any lines),
2) 6 Christmas songs for preschoolers that are full of motions, sign language and bells,
3) a piano score with guitar chords,
4) a vocal CD (a recording of Cathy singing the full version of each song). Performance time: 20 minutes.

We'll clean up and decorate the barn!

Purchase of this preschool Christmas musical play ($29 plus shipping) grants you permission to make as many copies of the sheet music and script as needed for your performance plus permission to make and distribute copies of the vocal CD (a recording of Cathy singing the full version of each song) and lyric sheet to your preschoolers (a great way for them to learn the music quickly!).

To preview this Christmas musical play, a script and vocal CD (a recording of Cathy singing the full version of each song) are available for $7 plus shipping. If you'd like to use the 10-12 minute script and insert your own children's songs, purchase of performance rights for the script is $15 (script can be sent via e-mail to save shipping charges). If you already have a script written and would like to use some of the preschool Christmas songs from this musical, sheet music is available for $3.00 per song plus shipping. Sheet music includes piano score, guitar chords and motions. No CD is included when you purchase sheet music for individual songs.

A keyboard CD (no vocals) is also available for $20 plus shipping, for those times when your piano player isn't available or when you need to free up your hands to teach actions or sign language. This CD may also be used for your performance - it's like hiring a piano player who plays the music the same way every time!

"Our Christmas program was another successful one this year. Continue writing the 20-minute preschool programs. They work very well for us and everyone enjoys them immensely."

Melanie K., Century Baptist Church

"We have used your preschool programs for the past two years. They have been very well received and much easier to put together than the other ones we have tried. As a former full-time church musician (I'm now the pastor), I am extremely appreciative of the age-appropriateness of the music you write for our preschoolers. Thanks!"
