The wise men left Jerusalem, and there was the star again! It went ahead of them and stopped right over the house where Jesus was. They were so happy!
They went inside and saw little Jesus with His mother, Mary. They bowed down and worshiped Him.
They gave Him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Then God warned them in a dream not to go back to Herod. So they went home a different way.
