Christmas Activities for Toddlers and Preschoolers: Fruit Loop Ornaments

This Christmas, I'm all about quick and simple activities that keep the girls busy without requiring a ton of effort on my part! Here's a fun one that counts as a snack too...

Materials:
pipe cleaners
fruit loops cereal
beads (optional)

Didn't we all make these when we were younger? Just bend your pipe cleaner to whatever shape you want and add your fruit loops. Bend the ends a bit to keep the fruit loops from falling off.

We did a couple with beads instead of fruit loops. This activity is great because it takes a little while for their little fingers to get the fruit loops onto the pipe cleaner, but it seems to still hold their attention. Plus they get to eat a few in between.
