Our Tasty Garland

Popcorn and Cranberry Garland

I always seem to get my post out after the Holidays, however it is always nice to have

these in the archives for next year.

This was a great activity for the kids, as well as a yummy one, because who doesn't love eating the popcorn.  The cranberries, however, had a mixed response.'

In addition to this being a pretty garland for the tree, it is a great way for the little ones to work on hand-eye coordination.  Even my littlest one, a little over 2 1/2 was very successful at stringing cranberries and popcorn.  The trick I found was a sizable metal needle.  The plastic ones tend to bend and actually make the project harder one the kids.
