Reindeer / Christmas - Day 5

Book: The Grumpy Reindeer

Available on Amazon HERE or watch a read aloud on Youtube HERE.

Song/Dance - Going on a Rudolph Hunt

Craft - Reindeer Handprint Ornament

I'm not normally a huge fan of handprint crafts as there is not as much child involvement in the activity as I would like, however I make an exception for these as you get to use them every year on the tree! The kids will love seeing their old decorations!.

To make these place a handprint onto white paper. Cut it out and add it to red or green cardstock and then laminate. Add the googly eys and a pom pom for the nose. Punch a hole at the top and add some ribbon.

Activity - Make Reindeer Food!

We LOVE doing this. Make your reindeer food (make sure it's environmentally friendly - no glitter) and save it until Christmas Eve to sprinkle on the lawn. See how to make it HERE.

I hope you've enjoyed our week of Reindeer / Christmas themed activites. Don't forget to share your pictures with us in our Facebook group.
