Wishing you a Bright Holiday!

Happy holidays! During this time of year, students are busy making gifts to bring home to their parents or to decorate their home. I love this idea because I think its bright and a perfect expression of an elementary student's daily routine and colorful personality. Using a round foam piece, a piece of felt is glued to the foam and then the crayons are glued onto the felt. Every student has a box of crayons in school, so there are minimal supplies needed. The flowers can be made or purchased, or if desired, a different school object can be placed instead of the flowers. Overall, this craft helps children practice their cutting and gluing skills, which are fine motor skills, while having fun. This creative idea is respectful of diversity in regards to different cultures and religions that honor different holidays. This wreath is simply a colorful decoration that any family can display!
