On the sixth day of Blogmas a Life Twintastic sent to me……Christmas activities for the kids!

Two weeks of Christmas holidays. This year more than ever we all need ideas on how to keep the kids entertained! Here are some ideas I’ve pinched from Pinterest {of course}.
Christmas Tree Finger Print Craft
Great for even the littlest artists but also great for older kids to design and cut out their own templates. Win win!

Gingerbread Playdough Tray
I’ve always fancied making my own playdough and I love this idea – I bet gingerbread smells amazing! Although will be interesting to see if the kids {Penny} try to eat it…..!

Christmas Science
Perfect for any budding scientist. It’s amazing what you can create with mostly bits you’ll probably already have lurking in your kitchen cupboards!

Salt Dough Ornaments
We made salt dough ornaments a couple of years ago and they were a massive hit {although took forever to dry out fully, may have got the recipe slightly wrong!} They still hang proudly on our tree.

Ice Skating Penguins
Now this looks like a lot of fun! My kids loved rescuing toy animals from ice during lockdown home-learning so this take on using ice for sensory play is sure to be a hit!

No-Sew Sock Snowman Craft
Another great idea for little hands. Why not get your kids to create a snowman family to play with?

Elf Yourself
I absolutely love this idea! The arts and crafts version of the Elf Yourself App. And it’s printable! Create the whole family, backdrop, story – the play possibilities are endless!

Are you planning any activities with your kids this Christmas? Or are you more wing-it and hope for the best? I’m usually the latter but like to have back-up!
Come back tomorrow for day 7!
