Fun is one size fits all. Don’t throw away your empty boxes! Make your kids happy this holiday and upcycle them into a festive sweater with our cute Holiday Sweater Activity.
Supplies:
- Cardboard boxes
- Paints
- Brushes
- Glue
- Wintery decorations (snowflakes, glitter, etc.)
- Googly eyes
STEP 1:
Draw and cut out your sweater shape from a cardboard box.
STEP 2:
Break out the Juicy Juice and throw on some holiday music! It’s time to deck your sweater with paint and glitter (fa la la la la la la la 😉 )! Paint your sweater whatever color you want and get creative with the look. In this example, we add snowmen to our sweaters!
STEP 3:
If you’d like to create this design – use your paint to add a snowman down the front middle of the sweater. Paint your snowman and let him dry, then give him a hat, eyes, a nose, hmm lets see what else? Maybe some buttons, arms and even shoes!
STEP 4:
Add your wintery decorations on and around the snowman to make your sweater even more festive! Then set aside to dry.
STEP 5:
Once your holiday sweater is dry, decide whether to hang it as a work of art or have some fun with it first! Wear your sweater on a pretend holiday adventure. Hold it up to your stuffies or dolls and put on a festive fashion show. Whatever you do, have fun!
