a lovely christmas idea is to spray a very large twig (almost a small branch i suppose!!!)...with silver or snowy paint...stick it in a pot- then get them all to decorate festive templates...trees,baulbles,bells etcs...and hang them from the twigs

our school actually did that at a christmas baazar...each child paid 25p to decorate their own item...and at the end of term they took them home!

if you have the eqipoment you could progress to silk painting, screen pritning, making your own paper,that stuff with hot wax, hmmmm, 'whats-it-called?' like wax resist.

here we ahve a craft resourse cetnre where you can borrow kits for this sort of thing

[AuntyQuated]

batik that's it

Don't forget Christmas Crackers: hobbycraft are doing packs of toys to put in them quite reasonably.

Well done YG...the pupils will love it and what a fab idea for them to make scrapbooks.
