A really fun activity for kids is making a Christmas ball. They can make these with aluminum foil. It is a nice activity to stimulate motor activity positively as well. Children make a ball shape from a sheet of aluminum foil . That's a fun thing to do, the material can completely wrinkle you!

If you have made a ball, there is still a ribbon in it. And how do you do that? By making a dimple in the bauble!

It is not a very elaborate craft, but one that a child does everything to himself and shapes it with their own hands! This is what children made in the child care center of Ineke van der Linde .

Full of admiration for your inventive ideas.

My partner wants some glitter on the balcony every now and then, so I blow up some balloons first, and then wrap them with aluminum paper and stick together with tec7. After hardening, the balloon goes out. But for kids, that type of glue is not really suitable.
@Marc De Bisschop That sounds a lot of fun too. Yes, that glue may not be very suitable for children, but could also be done with other glue. Good tip in any case!
What does she always have of those simple creative ideas? !
@enigma Yes, great huh? I find her so inspiring myself and am definitely her biggest fan.!
Very creative, I can only imagine how the children will love doing this!
Any! It's in simplicity.
@Ingrid Tips en meer Yes, hey. children have such a rich imagination themselves, they will come naturally with a bit of material as you can see!
A lovely simple craft idea, it can't fail, even I still know something to make of this
@Dana Yes, hey. I almost see you too. read almost fröbelen. I do miss your special design contests, so if you are positively stimulated by this post, I won't stop you.!
