Reindeer in a Bag

Reindeer man in a bag is a fun and easy color mixing Christmas craft for kids using only a few supplies. All you need is paper, a Ziplock bag, paints, googly eyes and pipe cleaners. 


Start by squirting different colors in a Ziplock bag and seal it tightly with a tape, so that the colors don't leak. Mix Red, green, yellow, orange blue! Let students smoosh and press the paint around in the bag until a color of the Ziplock bag turns into mucky brown. Next tape the two ends of the bag behind to give the bag a triangular shape to look like a reindeer's face.

Then use a red pom pom or pipe cleaner to make the nose and googly eyes for eyes. For antlers use black pipe, roll them on a marker or pencil and tape them to look like antlers of the reindeer. Your little ones are sure to love this process art activity for Christmas!
