DECK THE HALLS WITH HAPPY HANDS

Some of you will be shopping today and some of you will be working on lesson plans for December.  Over the next week I’ll post art projects, gifts children can make, recipes, and lots of FUN ideas.  Although you probably haven’t finished your turkey leftovers, I know you need ideas sooner rather than later so you can collect materials and integrate these ideas into your lesson plans. 

Note!  Some of you might not do holidays in your schools, so feel free to adapt these projects. 

How about using children’s hands to make wrapping paper, cards, or decorations.  You can trace around their hands and cut them out, or let children dip their hands in paint and print.  You could also use fabric paint and make holiday shirts with their handprints.
