Holiday Craft Season Begins!

December is my favorite time of year, when all the holiday arts and crafts can be brought out. No one brings out the elusive Christmas spirit like watching kids get excited over a goofy little craft.

Today they enjoyed making a hanging paper plate Christmas tree. (Modeled by my lovely coworker)

After coloring both sides green, just add a little paint,

a little poof,

and a little sparkle.

Then punch a hole for hanging after adding a star. Simple stuff, but an effective time-killer. And more importantly, a great way to see some holiday-inspired smiles.

Now if only I can come up with an art project for tomorrow...
