This is such an easy activity to do!!!!
Buy some cheap Christmas baubles and set up a table with glue and pretties and stick them over the Bauble!!!!! As simple as that !!!
Some tips!!!! I used two tone baubles ( bought from a cheap shop, nothing expensive)
To decorate I used sequins, sequin stars & glitter, I placed all the materials into bowls, so the children could just dip their gluey bauble straight into the pretties!! (little kid friendly activity)
For little fingers I used mini shaving brushes, this made it easier for the children to apply the glue.
You could also sit the bauble into an egg carton to hold it, while decorating it.
Extra Ideas
You could use masking tape to keep an area free of glue so that when it dries you could peel off tape and puffy paint an initial or name on the bauble.
Even initials in metallic marker would work!
Or thread satin ribbon through the bauble hole to hang from the tree etc. rather than the little piece of thread they come with.
Or thread them all onto a long piece of ribbon and string in a doorway!
This activity encourages, fine motor, gross motor, creative and social development.
This experience is for all ages, changing the materials offered, depending on age of the little people!!
I am feeling Festive, are you????????????
