a Christmas wreath
Wednesday, December 16th, 2009
We like to make our Christmas activities pretty simple and child oriented. We tend to pop lots of glitz out on the table and let them go for it!
In this case they could make wreaths if they wanted, so we put out paper plates, glue, patty pans, bells, recycled Christmas cards, pipe cleaners, pom-poms, hole punches and curling ribbon and off they went. Naturally they were free to source other bits and pieces to use as well.
They came up with many and varied wreaths – some simple and others more complex.
They had a lovely time exercising both mind and body …
… glueing …
… sticking …
… punching …
… attaching …
… twisting …
… threading …
… tying …
… and displaying. All so very unique … and …
… our first ever Christmas whale … TOO CUTE!
