Foam Reindeer Ornament

12 07 2004 Craft Reindeer, originally uploaded by _Justice.

This is a Christmas craft idea for primary grade students. The children trace their hand on a piece of foam, then cut out the handprint. On one side they write their name, and on the other side they draw a reindeer. The four fingers become the four legs. With a marker, paint the fingertips black for the hooves - see picture. The thumb becomes the head. With pipe cleaners, craft wiggly eyes, ribbon and some red sparkle, the students are all set to give their parents a homemade Christmas ornament!
