Oh, hey, unknowingly, my 3 yo grandbaby is halfway here with making these! I was trying to teach her how to make candy canes on pipe cleaners, and she kept putting on beads and twisting them. Ta da!

Just trying to get some ideas together, our family is having a decoration day with all the little ones, and need to be ready with supplies.

These are so clever, and something about this activity fascinates preschoolers. I included this in my Christmas in July roundup.

This great-grandmother really likes this link. The little ones love arts and crafts, as do I. But I really like ones that clean up quickly at the end of their time spent with us! Pinterest is so a great resource. Thanks for a quick and easy Christmas project.

I’m doing a roundup of Christmas ornaments that kids can make. I’d love to include your beautiful icicles! (One image and a link back). I blog on One Creative Mommy. Would that be okay?

Perfect for our outdoor Christmas tree! All the ornaments will be made by the kiddos with help from Grandma.

In reply to tracy. They're just your standard metallic pipe cleaner, Tracy. Probably about 12 inches long.

These are lovely. ..but I wondered what size pipe cleaners these were. ..which type exactly would be helpful. Thank you so much.

This idea is absolutely beautiful and colorful!! I like this activity because for children, it also helps the development of fine motor skills and it adds a lot of fun for the holiday season! A great activity to do indoors especially if the weather is rainy or snowy.

In reply to bonnie happell. Do you know about Pinterest, Bonnie? If you were on pinterest, you could just "pin" all of the posts that you see to a visual bulletin board. You can have multiple boards organized by topic. It's an excellent way to "store" your favourite posts with just a couple of clicks of the mouse.

I really like the simplicity of the idea…and apart from being simple..they look really beautiful..amazing idea to create a personalized icicle ornament, by adding a message hanging from the other end.

In reply to happyhooligans. Thank you, I will amend the link now and check the others. Thanks for the info on links, I had googled it but I think it was such basic thing I couldn't find anything. Really I need a 'how to' to turn the computer on x

In reply to Paula Flanagan.

Hi Paula! Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I’m glad you’re enjoying our ideas. 🙂 I took a look at the post that you wrote, and I notice that some of your links are working. I don’t know how to add a link in Blogger (I’m with WordPress), but I notice you have my link down as a .com. It’s actually a .ca, so if you change it, it might work.
It’s interesting that Sunscholars and Hands on: as we grows’s links go to their blogs. You’ve done something right there. 🙂 When you add a link, be sure you are on the blog’s PAGE (not just their homepage), but the actual page of the POST that you want to link to. Then copy and paste the URL (that appears in the top left HTTP field on your screen) into your link widget. Hope that helps. 🙂 Thanks for loving my blog, and for taking the time to link to it, and letting me know. 🙂

Love the simplicity of this. Have a little blog crush on you at the min, such fab ideas. I posted about this on my blog mommymugglesthrough.blogspot.com on post dated 11th dec. My apologies, can’t work out how to give links to things, bit of a novice at blogging and computer in general. x
