Rudolph - The Red Nosed Reindeer


You can fashion Rudolph, the famous reindeer of Santa with his big bright red nose, almost out of anything depending on your creativity, using googly eyes, a red pom pom, a red berry or ball for a nose and antlers that can be fashioned out of wire, hanger or even a handprint of a child cut out and painted brown. Let's make this famous character of Santa legend a part of our Christmas celebrations this year by using the tips given below:
  • Little tots can help you make a reindeer by glueing eyes, antlers and nose on a hanger wire folded as a reindeer's face by you that you can hang as a beautiful Christmas ornament on the magical Christmas tree or from the holiday wreath on the door.
  • Stick a small red pom pom on the corner of the dog biscuit for a nose, eyes and antlers made from pipe cleaners or chenille sticks to make Rudolph's face and add a magnet strip to its back. Now, let the kids catch as many Rudophs as they can with a fishing rod with a magnet at the end within a specified time and the one who catches the most is the winner. It is a great game Christmas kids party.
  • Fashion Rudolph name tags and use it to write your Christmas greeting and messages and stick it to the gifts and see the receiver smile.
  • Fun activities for kids on Christmas can include making the Rudolf using their hand and foot prints. Take their footprint on a paper. Cover the toe side with bow for Rudolph. This is the face. Now add eyes and nose to the face taking the heel side as the head of the reindeer. Take the handprints of the child to form the antlers of the face. Now paint it with appropriate colors and cut it out. You can use it on gift wraps and Christmas decorations.
  • Another way to make Rudolph using just one handprint is to take it with all the fingers and thumb fully stretched. Now turn it upside down. The fingers will make the legs and you can fashion the side face from the thumb by adding the red nose at its end. Add one eye to it as it is the side face and you can even put a few beads to show the neck of the reindeer.
