Making Decorative Christmas Baubles with Toddlers

This is a fun activity which uses sparkles, pens, stickers, paint (if you wish!), some card and some string. It’s completely child-led. Just pop the resources on the table and let them design their very own Christmas bauble.

Resources:

• Circles of cut card
• Hole punch
• Pens
• Paints (if you so desire)
• Sparkly gem stickers
• Glue
• Sequins
• String

Method:

1. First, cut out the required number of baubles from some card. You can draw round a cup or a candle holder to make perfect circles.

2. Use a hole punch to punch a hole in the top of the circle 1/2cm away from the edge.

3. Lay out the paints (if using), pens, sequins, glue and stickers on the table and watch your little one design their own bauble.

4. Leave to dry and then using a piece of string, loop it through, tie a knot and then get your little one to hang it on the Christmas tree.

Have fun making these!
