I found a great Christmas ornament that my four year old loved making. They also turned out really cute!
First, tear up six sheets of same color construction paper and place in a blender. Add 1 1/2 cups of very warm water to the paper and let set for about five minutes. Pulse for about 30 seconds. Put the goop into a paper towel and squeeze out all of the water.
Place a towel covered by a paper towel onto a plate. I used a 3 inch star shaped cookie cutter. Place the paper pulp into the cookie cutter taking extra care to get it into the points. Use another paper towel and push out any excess water. Carefully remove the cookie cutter and place the star onto a cookie sheet.
Bake at 200 degrees for about 2 hours or until dry. Once cool, glue on a ribbon to the back for a hanger! Voila!
Super easy and cute ornament idea! I think we will make a bunch for our tree and to give as gifts.
