A Christmas wreath to make with the children..


A Christmas wreath to make with the children..

It's a fun thing to do for the children. Draw round their hand onto card and cut it out. Make 9 or ten 'hands'. Colour the hand with red and green and decorate each hand with glitter or torn up green or red tissue. Tape or glue the hands around a ring of card. Add red berries either from the garden or use pompoms, gluing them on. Tie a ribbon in a bow to the bottom and blue tac it to the fridge door as we have or pin it on the wall.

Love when children are happy and working on things - they get that concentrated look on their face :D

Grandson took his cupcakes home, very pleased with himself. And, funnily enough, I did find myself showing him the lick and dip method of clearing up the spilt edible glitter! I may, however, have a glittery kitchen for some time. Very Christmassy.
