Kids can be all thumbs wrapping presents, but they love popping gifts into Christmas trbags they’ve made themselves. These reindeer gift bags can even be lined up as a “herd” and displayed on a mantel or a table in the hallway until gift-giving time rolls around.
What You'll Need
What to Do
-
Fold down the top third of the paper bag.
-
Decorate the bag with a pompom nose, wiggle eyes and markers.
-
Cut cardstock to make antlers and a bow. Glue or tape to the bag.
-
Fill the bag with treats and give as a gift.
*Brown paper lunch bags are just the right size for small gifts, cookies and candies. Got a big present? A large grocery bag or a tall leaf bag makes a super-size Rudolph. (Hey, kids! “Rudolph” means “famous wolf” in German.)
