Santa sacks

Awaiting Santa, children in Karen Cornfield's care in Stechford, Birmingham, are having bags of fun with an old laundry tablet bag Resources

Resources

Washing powder tablet bag, red felt, cotton wool, glitter, scissors, children's washable, PVA glue, craft eyes (you can buy these from WH Smith), pen and pencil, card

Step-by-step

* Draw an outline of Santa on the red felt. This should be roughly 10cm (top to bottom) by 8.5cm (left to right). You can use the template pictured.

* Draw another outline on a piece of card.

* Cut out the outlines and place the card version of the Santa template inside the netting. Glue the felt version on top of the netting, and on to the card template. This will prevent one side of the netting sticking to the other.
