Since Santa will be making a visit to your house to leave lovely gifts – why not get the kids to make him an adorable plate to put his cookies on. It’s a great way to get little fingers involved in the festivities and it will help to keep them amused too. You can use Sharpies on a dollar store plate or paint and they would also make a great present for family and friends too. They are sure to be treasured for eternity and they will also be nice to look back on once kids are grown up.
