Christmas Presents Kids Can Make

Gr 4-6 - Ross offers 29 handmade gifts for children to create for their families and friends. Most of the materials can be found in the home and often involve recycling items (old felt-tip pen caps, film canisters, laundry-bottle caps, Christmas catalogs). For example, discarded children's socks can be used to make a "Jingle Bell Bracelet" and a cap for a "Snowman Antenna Ball" (useful for locating the car in crowded mall parking lots). The lists of materials are clearly illustrated as are the step-by-step instructions.
