John the Baptist
Where was Jesus born?
Bethlehem
Who was the father of Jesus? (think about it)

What were gold, frankincense, and myrrh for?
Gifts for baby Jesus
How did Joseph and Mary travel to the little town of Bethlehem?
Although the Bible doesn't say, they probably rode a donkey for about 80 miles. Camels were for people who had more money, like the wise men.
What approximate age was Jesus when the wise men visited Him?
Nearly 2 years old
How did the wise men know that the King of the Jews, Jesus, had been born?
They saw a star in the East
What animals does the Bible say were in the stable in Bethlehem, where Jesus was born?
The Bible does not mention any animals, but the stable was like a small barn, so it's likely there was a cow, maybe a donkey, goat, and some chickens.
How many wise men does the Bible say came to visit Jesus?
There were at least 2, because the word for wise men, "magi," is plural, but the Bible doesn't say how many. Many people think there were three because there were three gifts.
