reindeer ideas

[yummy-mummy-amy]

hi,

i have had an thought (you probably heard the cogs ticking in the USA! LOL!)

last weekend we got my son a rocking horse as a late birthday present, now the elves can add antlers and red nose to it = reindeer, they can try to get it to fly with dog biscuits and instructions!

i have also found a "pin the tail on the reindeer" game.

can have them make "gingerbread reindeers"

and our "rudolph" toy can come for the night.

plus when the novelty shop gets the xmas stock in (about 3-4weeks) they sell the pooping reindeers (sweets or raisins) so intend to get 3 of them.




any other thoughts or ideas as to what they can do thats reindeer related?

reindeer

I have used them to teach the little one about pet care made a stall out of popcicle sticks painted brown put straw and rasins in it and had the kids clean the stall the next night the reindeer showed up , now when they come they always look for the stall ,

hi,

thanks for the ideas. i have managed to get pooping reindeers and wind up reindeer torches. i am going to make the reindeer gingerbread men (normal gingerbread man cuter turned upside down - his feet and legs become the antlers, arms are the ears and head is the face, decorate with icing pens, chocolates etcto make the eyes n nose)
