We made Glitter Christmas Playdough and put them in home made gift bags to give as gifts to young cousins for Christmas presents. They came up really well and were a nice easy activity.

Looks great! I bought one too! I got extra felt to add some more detail...but it's not finished yet! Luckily LO is only 18m...so I'm hoping she won't notice I'm a day or two behind.... :haha:
 
You will need to show yours off. Ive kept the spare felt and Ill cut shapes that lo can stick on himself when hes a bit older. He would go nuts and stick the pockets closed at the moment!!!
 
Finished now :)

I made cookie mixes in mason jars, cinnamon salt dough ornaments, painted glass ornaments, painted Canvas art with winter/Christmas themes (some used kids hand/feet prints), and some chocolate dipped pretzels/cookies for gifts. I'm not super crafty, but I've been doing pretty well with some Pinterest ideas:)
 
I've been making snowman soups :)
Just need a million candy canes and some curling ribbon!

That reminds me to get a move on with mine. Time is running out. :wacko:
 
Today the kids made more salt dough Christmas decorations - we hang some on our tree and wrap some up as gifts for grandparents. https://myboredtoddler.com/microwave-salt-dough-christmas-decorations/
 
Finished a few more gifts. only need to finish off bird feeders, make bbq rubs, chocolates, and snowman soups.

She enjoyed it so much that we made another smaller one:

I made some ornaments for the tree as well. Ariane keeps telling me she doesn't like them. :dohh:
