Truth in the Tinsel–Day 15

Nothing says Christmas like dough ornaments! Again, I was apprehensive about this craft thinking it would be a nightmare. Lo’ and behold it was a raving success! The kids ALL loved making their mangers. Going one step beyond, Noah also made his own Joseph and Mary. Not to be left out, Eden made a Holy couple as well. She even remembered to put on Mary’s “hat”. Eden’s people have big long legs and huge eyes. Yaya really enjoyed poking the dough with a tooth pick as I fashioned some of it into a manger. As I began making the “hay” to put on top she got involved and put all the hay on top of baby Jesus. Eden and Yaya played with the dough for about 40 minutes. Later, after we baked our ornaments we grabbed paint made our masterpieces! Such a fun craft. Who knew?
