Christmas Crafts for Kids - Fuse Bead Father Christmas
|
|
|
|
No home with kids should be without a Father Christmas. This is a fun craft for kids to do on a cold December afternoon. Once they are finished, let them hang their project on the family tree for everyone to see or they can even give it as a gift to someone special. This craft takes up to 1 1/2 hours but experienced kids should usually be able to complete it within an hour.

Instructions:
1. Print out the pattern and use it as a guide for placing the beads on the peg board.
2. Once the figure is complete, place a piece of baking paper over it. Heat up the iron to a cotton setting and then iron over the paper. This will melt the beads together.
3. Let the Father Christmas dry about 3 minutes and then remove the paper. Now the figure can also be carefully removed. Attach a clear string for hanging.
