Put Joseph and Mary far from the manger to start with -- across the room, for example. As the days go on, they get closer to the manger. On Christmas Eve, place baby Jesus in the manger. After Jesus is born, the wise men and shepherds start toward the manger from a far distance, and get closer each day until, finally, the entire manger scene is complete on Epiphany (January 6).
