How to Make Rudolph Ornaments

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Pam on behalf of Expert Village and today I'm going to show you different art projects for kids. Here's a fun Christmas project that you can do. These really make great gifts like if you're with dad and you need a gift for mom or visa versa because it's something that you can hang on the tree that kids can look at while they're celebrating Christmas. Now what you want to do is you have your yarn, this is going to be used for your hook or your hanger that you're going to put onto the tree. Now cardboard works best because it's sturdier but for time purposes, it's kind of harder to cut through so I'm just going to show you with construction paper. The first thing that you want to do is you want to cut a circle for Rudolph's head. And then you let your kid decorate Rudolph. Then what you want to do is get two antlers and like I said, the cardboard works best because it's sturdier, it's going to up longer. You want to cut out your antlers and let the kids decorate them. Now like I said before with all of this, the better artist you are, the better it's going to look. I'm not the greatest artist. And you have your antlers, now two of them. Now the fun thing of course is to let the kids glue the antlers any where that they want. They can glue them here, they can glue them here, they can glue them there, either way, as long as they get them on, that's what matters. So they glue on their antlers. And then, the most important thing with Rudolph is the red fuzzy nose. This is something that doesn't take long to do and like I said, it's going to be on the tree so kids are going to get to look at it and they're going to be proud that they did it on their own. Glue on the nose like that, and then you give Rudolph his eyes. Rudolph can have a mouth also if you want, it's up to you, and like I said, kids are going to put the eyes wherever they want, that's what makes these so cute. And you have Rudolph. Then you simply either glue or tape on your string on the back and you have a fun Christmas ornament."
