Mitten Lacing Cards


Construction paper is cut into a mitten shape with holes punched around the edges to make mitten lacing cards with busy bee kids crafts.  She then lets the kids practice their find motor skills by threading the cards with yarn.

Good for ages 2 and up.

Hygloss also has a lacing card tutorial but with a winter theme of mittens. The cute idea is they use full page construction paper so the kids can actually wear the mittens once they're laced.

A cute twist on family hand prints, cut out paper mittens from scrapbooking paper in each of the family hand sizes and glue them one on top of each other to make a winter family montage with cindy derosier.

Good for ages 1 and up.

A Cozy Playdate


Cozy up with this mitten based play date for both indoor and outdoor fun

 

Begin the play date by repurposing a pair of cozy socks into a pair of warm mittens with pam's party and practical tips.  Older kids can hand stitch the mittens closed with yarn and younger kids can lace them with pre-cut holes.

Next, read the classic children's book The Mitten by Jan Brett.  Check it out from the library or it's also available on Amazon.


Next, take a break with this adorable mitten sandwich snack from meet the dubiens.  It's especially impressive since she incorporates everything from chicken to carrots.

Finally, complete this fun math estimation and probability activity from swamp frog first graders where kids get to predict how likely it is for each animal to actually be able to fit into a mitten.
