We made salt dough ornaments today. The children had a lot of fun with it. We made both stars and talked about the wisemen looking for Jesus. We also made some bells.
Our Recipe:
1/2 c salt
1 c flour
1/2 c water
Mix ingredients. Knead on slightly floured surface till dough is smooth and elastic. Roll dough to 1/4 inch thick. Cut into shapes. Bake at 250' for 2 hours. (Don't forget to poke a hole for attaching ribbon before you cook your ornaments.)

We went outside to play while the dough cooked and cooled.
Painting the ornaments
And of course there was glitter.
I still need to spray them so they are shiny and sealed.
Peacefully BuZzInG,
