Hi everyone!!

When are you all starting your christmas crafts?? Im dying to do some........its my favvourite time of year for crafting with the kids. They seem much more willing to concentrate longer when its christmas

Oooooo im getting excited

I'm starting the end of the month as well, otherwise we'll never get anything finished as all mine are part time and things take time to dry.

We have just planned some crafts at the children's centre and card making so that will ease the pressure a bit.

Can't wait!

I'm also staring mind at the end of the month! Loads to get done and I too can't wait!

I'm starting this week! Well they will be decorating the frames they are giving as presents. Next week they will do poem or drawing for it. As I only have 1 during the school day I try and do crafts with everyone at once makes it easier. Also my kids are term time only and we only have 2 days which are the best to do them so I thought it would be best to start.

We have started some salt dough decs but I was wondering what everyone is making, especially with the 2's and under??

[Chatterbox Childcare]

I started by painting our advent calendars last week but that it is for another 2 weeks now

Still deciding on what to make the parents!

not allowed in my house until 1st December at the earliest

[PixiePetal]

My mindees are all very part time and under 4 and I wanted to leave it for a bit but will run out of days

Also Ofsted due tomorrow or Thurs so as we are in waiting, we might as well start. Doing paper plate wreaths with tissue paper greenery and red pom poms

[janminder]

Not until beginning December, also mine are all before and after school and the school breaks up on the 17th so i will have a whole week before with some so xmas crafts could keep them occupied for a while.

Can't believe its so close

[VINASOL]

Hmm, I've already started doing Christmas decorations

Am such a big kid at haert and love doing craft stuff with kids...mindees are only p/t so we do a couple of things a week.

I think Nursery are looking for some donations too - so that'd be right up my street. Have done a snowman and some paper chains and am gonig to do a santa on Friday too!

Love Christmas

We started making pom poms today-the children wanted to when they saw the wool etc! They'll be turned into santa's to hang on the tree

The funniest thing tho is that it was a 7yo boy who was determined to finish, even when the girls went off to play babies saying they'd finish theirs tomorrow, and tomorrow he's making a pom pom snow man and next tues a christmas tree one..... bless him!

We're starting ours this week! Making an advent countdown and christmas cards as one of mindees has relatives abroad. Taking a break from Christmas next week for Road Safety, then full on into Christmas crafts
Soo looking forward to it as I love Christmas time.
