Rea, I did something similar to the Reindeers over 2 fingered kitkats for all of DD's class one year - a mix of Snowmen and Santas.
A plain Santa (red strong paper, a strip of black for boots and another for a belt, a strip of white at the top of the boots and a beard shape at the top (no face, just from the beard down), and a gold belt buckle. Oh, and 3 black circles (which I made by punching black card with a 2 hole punch, and opening up the punch for the results).
And a Snowman. Plain white paper, with a black paper top hat, drawn on eyes and mouth I think (felt tip), orange paper carrot shape, stripey paper as a scarf, and 3 more black hole punch circles as coal lump buttons down his middle.
Another year, I filled small treat/candy bags with chocolate covered raisins and a card with a "Reindeer Poop" poem stuck over the top. You can get the poem on the web in various places, and some have toppers to print. And there are also poems for "Snowman Poop" (white bonbons, or white hard shell chewy mints).
I don't know if it still works, but the website "One Pretty Thing" (I think) used to round up loads of ideas, and you could then get lost in various blogs and store sites for ideas....Pinterest may do the same job these days.
