Gift Making for Siblings

I love to have the kiddos make gifts for their loved ones.  I hope it helps them catch a bit of the giving spirit of Christmas instead of just the getting.

This year we made Christmas crocodiles.  This is probably my favorite sibling gift we do.  It takes a lot of mini eyes and clothes pins (the kiddos are welcome to make as many crocodiles as they can come up with people to give them to).  It does take a bit of time to hot glue all the eyes on, but it's totally worth it.  We wrap each of these as well, which also takes time, but the kids are just beaming with their crop of crocs to give.
 The kiddos paint them, I glue the eyes on once they've dried, then they add glitter glue or detail with sharpies.
