Gift Bag Craft

I've been waiting to hear back from some performers, so in the mean time here's another in-house program idea. This is one I used at my library every December. I would buy a bunch of cheap plain gift bags of varying sizes, then I would go into my craft cabinet and pull out scissors, glue, crayons, markers, paints, glitter, stamps, stickers, scrap paper, ribbon, cotton balls, googly eyes, and whatever else I could find. Then I let the children and their parents create their own personalized gift bags. This is a great program because it's for all ages and it's seasonal without being devoted to any particular holiday. And of coarse the best part, it's CHEAP!
