Ornament Craft
This one is easy and very inexpensive! I purchased cookie cutters from my local dollar store. I got three in the set. I traced them onto scraps of Christmas paper that were purchased for scrapbooking. I cut them out and helped my granddaughter tie some silver string through the cookie cutter and then glue the paper onto the edge. She made cute ornaments in just a few minutes. Since cookie cutters come in so many different designs, the possibilities are enormous. To change it up, you can use fabric which an older child can cut, or even scraps of wrapping paper. The name and date can be added if the ornaments are to be used as gifts for teachers or others that care for your children. Have fun!
