Candy Cane Reindeers

This is a fun craft to make with your children or in the classroom.  Candy Cane Reindeer.  This is not my idea, it was found on Pinterest.

 
I purchased a pack of chocolate and vanilla flavoured candy canes which I thought were more appropriate for children than the peppermint flavoured ones.  Tied some brown wool around the top of two candy canes and then stuck a red "Rudolph" pom pom nose and googly eyes on to finish them off.  Easy!
 
 
 
My sister was going to visit my "crafty" nieces and nephews on the weekend, so I made up some kits for them to complete these little reindeer.  I always include extra "little" bits in the kits when making them for children, just in case they drop / lose some parts.  In this case, an extra set of eyes, and 1 more pom pom nose was popped in. 
 
 
Two little 2013 diaries were transformed with a "fun" cover.  I think I need to keep this next one for myself!
 
 
Or maybe even this one?
 
 
These have been placed in a cellophane bag with a little label on the back
 
 
I think these are going to be popped into a gift bag with a gift voucher for some family members.  Just for fun!
 
I like making small fun gifts, do you?
