I was browsing through the craft store the other day, filled to the brim with holiday ornaments and decorations, and was just remarking to myself how many twig and branch related products there are during the holiday season.
Winter is such a fun time to make stick crafts – have your kids gather some and make fun ornaments or trees out of them. Or don’t just limit it to branches – lots of fun ideas use cinnamon or popsicle sticks.
