HOLIDAY CRAFTS
The wonderful signs of fall are upon us. Leaves are falling, nights are getting darker earlier and cooler, and schedules are jam-packed with activities. And soon the holidays will be here too! Have your child help you out this year with some easy-to-make decorations and simple, handmade gifts. Using materials found around the house or inexpensive ones from the craft stores, these gifts are bound to please teachers, friends and loved ones on any special occasion! Nothing says "I love you" more than something that came from the heart.
