If your children enjoy singing the carol or watching the movie, Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer, they will love these simple and fun ornaments!
What you will need:
Craft felt foam Rudolph mini purse (available at Michael's)
2 wiggly eyes
red craft felt foam
scissors
glue stick
candy (Both candy sticks or canes work well)
black permanent marker
To make:
If you are making in the classroom, have items ready on a tray and on a shelf.
If you are making in your own home, have items out on the table.
Have each child lay out their own items.
First, child should take a marker and write their name and the year on the back of their ornament.
Next, have child cut a small red oval or circle to be the nose.
Then, child should glue nose.*
Then, child should glue eyes.*
*It is easier for the child to decide placement of the eyes if the nose goes on first, but does not have to happen in that order...
Child should then select two to three pieces of candy, either candy canes or candy sticks.
Candy should be placed evenly inside the opening of the mini purse.
Then, the ornament is good to go!
Use the mini purse handles as the hanger for the ornament.
Super fun and cute!
Hope that you and your children will enjoy making these as much as Little Bro enjoyed making his today!
