Hands and Feet Reindeer Craft
An easy to make reindeer craft for classrooms, a Christmas party,
or with your children at home.
You'll Need:
Large plastic eyes
Large red pom-poms (glitter pom-poms are a fun addition!)
Brown construction paper, craft foam or cardstock paper
Lighter brown or tan paper for the ears (optional)
Construction paper in any color; optional if you would like to glue
the reindeer onto another piece of paper.
How to Make It:
First, with one shade of brown, cut the antlers and reindeer,
using your child's handprint and shoeprint as a pattern.
Then, cut the ears with the other brown. We used a lighter shade of
brown to add yet another layer to the ears but that's not necessary.
Glue the antlers together at a slight angle. Then add the ears and glue
the head on last. Glue the eyes and nose the the head and add a smile with a marker.
It's that simple!

Silver and/or blue tinsel pipe cleaners 2 per snowflake
Blue, white, silver plastic pony beads
Cut the pipe cleaners in half so that you have 4 pieces.
Make a cross with two pieces, twist and secure. then add the other
two pieces, twist and secure.
Add a few beads to each piece of pipe cleaner. Bend the ends of each
piece just enough to prevent the beads from falling off. Add an ornament hanger or make a loop with the pipe cleaner for hanging

6 inch wrapped Candy Cane
Ribbon
2 wiggle eyes
Red or Brown pom pom
2 pipe cleaners

Leave the wrapping on the candy cane. Glue eyes on rounded face of the candy cane. Glue red pompom on the face for a nose. Tie ribbon into a bow on the straight part of the candy cane. Cut one of the pipe cleaners in half. Wrap the full pipe cleaner around the crook of the candy cane to begin the antlers. Use the cut pipe cleaners to manipulate into antlers.
