Candy Canes & Christmas Trees!

Marble-painting a candy cane - a smaller box/tray would probably work better!
Carlie had fun with some container painting!  We used a large, plastic Christmas ornament instead of a marble inside hers!

Similar to something I saw on pinterest, we used a marker to color foil to make a Christmas tree.
Instead of bending it into a triangle, we fluted them up like trumpets and stacked the layers.  H had fun re-stacking them!
This was a fun tree made using coffee filters.  I showed H how to color colored circles on the coffee filters & then I helped her scribble over the whole thing in green.  We sprayed with a water bottle & laid out on towels to dry before folding & taping them down (and adding stars and other stickers for decoration)!
Thumbprint Christmas lights cards!
H painted her salt-dough ornaments all by herself!
A popsicle stick Christmas tree!
We used a bingo-type dabber to paint them (she did this all herself!)
We added star and smiley face stickers for decoration!
A special card for the girls' special librarian!  Haddy helped by putting the yarn on the glue in the manger!
Both girls liked watching the plastic Christmas ornaments wiggle and jiggle inside the muffin tin!
This has been a favorite pastime of Carlie's for the last couple weeks: She loves to watch the balls roll around inside the metal bowl & then bang them on the side!  She also likes to look at herself in it when it's turned upside-down!
We painted the bottom of the paper plate green & then added dots of other colors for decorations.  I cut it out in a spiral and...
voila!
