JINGLE BELL CLUB AND DOLLAR STORE "STUFF"

Jingle Bell Club(Kitty Allen)
Kids get to sign their name as members of the “Jingle Bell Club” when they learn to tie their shoes. They also get a jingle bell on a ribbon to tie on their shoe laces.



Gel Stickers


Free play on windows or a mirror. These can also be used on a cookie sheet for sorting, making sets, addition, etc.


Santa Chair Cover
What a special treat to use for reading or writing!

*Children could also sit in the chair and write a letter to Santa.


A Coloring We'll Go
I am the last person in the world who would encourage coloring books over creative art, but the truth is that some kids just like to color. I was working with some child care centers years ago and I was "against" worksheets or coloring sheets. I went into a teacher’s room and to my dismay there was a group of girls sitting at a table coloring. They were chatting and have a grand time. The teacher said, “They beg to do worksheets and use coloring books.” Oh, well! So, put a holiday coloring book and crayons in a center as a reward if children finish their work early. It might entertain them and it certainly will do no harm.
