Things Preschoolers Can Do with Used Christmas Cards
Are you still wondering what to do with last year’s Christmas cards? Sometimes they’re too pretty to recycle. And preschoolers are often attracted to the colorful and creative pictures. Here are some things your preschoolers can do with your used Christmas cards - besides recycling.
Make a Christmas card wreath. Give your preschooler a wreath shaped piece of cardboard or construction paper. Then let them glue their favorite Christmas card pictures around the wreath. Decorate with a bow and hang up for a pretty wreath.
Make Christmas ornaments. Punch a hole on the top of your preschooler’s favorites. Help them to pull a piece of colorful string through the hole and tie it. Voila! You have new ornaments for your Christmas tree!
Christmas lacing cards. Punch holes on a pretty card and turn it into a lacing card for your preschooler.
Give them to friends and family members. If there’s no writing behind the picture, this can be your preschooler’s chance to send out his or her very own Christmas cards. Help them practice their printing by writing a short Christmas message and their name.
