This chocolate playdough is super quick and easy to make. The scent is absolutely gorgeous and it’s a good, cheap sensory activity that can keep your kids occupied for ages! If it’s cold outside you’re also more than welcome to pass this off as hot chocolate playdough, letting your kids play with it and a couple of mugs!
This week we’ve been making cookie cutter Christmas cards. I’m going to hold my hands up and say that Christmas card writing is probably my least favourite Christmas activity, so getting the kids to do some homemade cards always makes it more bearable for me! These cards may not look like Clinton’s finest, but they are kid made and are great to send to family members. Plus cookie cutter crafts are fun for the kids so that’s a good thing by me!

This week I thought we’d try to make our own Christmas tree ornaments with these cute toilet roll reindeer decorations! They were loads of fun to make and are a great frugal Christmas craft too, everything that we used was something I already had, or in the case of the ‘antlers’, something I could easily find in the garden!

One of the ways we’re getting into the spirit of things is by reading loads of Christmas stories, so for this weeks Tuesday Tutorials I’m sharing some Christmas crafts inspired by books that have been linked up here!

Actually it’s a great thing 🙂 So here’s the cotton wool candy canes we made, because hopefully you and your kids will find them fun too.
