Create a free GlueStick account to track supplies and see if you have what you need at a glance. Leave your kids tips about where supplies are stored in your household so they can set up and clean up their creative spaces independently.
Fold a piece of paper in half. Trace a cookie cutter shape onto the folded paper. Draw another line about 1/2 inch away from the traced shape. Carefully cut out around the larger shape. You should have two identical solid shapes. Then, cut along the inside of each shape to make two ornament-shaped frames. One will be the front and the other will be the back. This might be hard for younger crafters. Ask an adult for help if needed.
"Let's stick together and make this one!"
Put things away so your space is tidy for next time.
Check off each supply when it is put away — and any clean-up tips underneath are done too. You might find a fun surprise!
