The Kingston, Richmond and Wimbledon Family Grapevine Area

Hello and welcome to the Winter issue of the Kingston, Richmond and Wimbledon Family Grapevine.

Photo I hope you have all had a lovely Summer and of enjoyed the lovely weather we had.

Editor For all those of you who saw me waddling around distributing the Summer issue, you may like to hear that I had a little boy so we had a busy Summer! My daughter had been hoping for a sister, but quickly realised that a little brother was not so bad after all. So apologies for the reduced presence on the Facebook page, but normal life is slowly resuming!

We have some great competitions featured in this issue and I look forward to your entries coming in along with your comments. As always it is great to hear from my readers and please don’t forget to mention to local businesses that you found them in the Family Grapevine.

Enjoy the festive period and have a wonderful New Year!

Holiday Schemes and Camps • Out and About

Christmas Craft Activities Sorry folks... tis the season for glitter!!

Here are some great ideas for getting the family together to create your own little bit of Christmas! All you need is gold, silver or white spray paint (adult use only), Christmas wrapping paper, red ribbon, old Christmas cards, glue, glitter, wire ties (eg. as used on sandwich bags) and any other bit and pieces that you have lying around!

Woodland Forage & Sparkle!

Nottinghamshire has some fantastic woodland footpaths and parks,

Gget wrapped up and enjoy a walk in the fresh air. In between rushing around burning off energy the kids can collect fir cones, twigs and bare branches (gloves might be a sensible precaution).

Fir cones look fabulous sprayed gold, once dry dab a bit of pva glue on its edges and, holding it over a container, sprinkle on the glitter.

Tie a red ribbon around the top and make it into a loop and let them hang their fir cone decoration on the tree.

Place six twigs in two triangle shapes and fix in place with wire ties.

Place one triangle on top of the other and turn the top 90 degrees to form a star and again use ties to keep in place. Paint or spray white, gold etc, dab on glue and apply the dreaded glitter if wanted or attach baubles with the ties, tie on a gift tag with your child’s name... get creative! Once finished, tie a loop of ribbon through the top and hang up in pride of place!

Small bare branches with children’s decorations hanging on them can look fantastic! Paint or spray if you wish and find a suitable container and place to stand it in. Hang on the baubles!

Christmas Bunting Bunting looks really cute but can be expensive. Using wrapping paper or old Christmas cards let the kids make their own!

Cut out a long triangle template in cardboard and draw round it on the back of either Christmas paper or old cards. Cut out the triangles (kid’s crinkly scissors are brilliant for this!) and with the paper ones fold the top over your string or ribbon, trim the corners and glue or staple in place. With the card ones you can use a hole punch and thread the string or ribbon through. Use plain card and your older children can spell out their names in bubble writing...one decorated letter per triangle for a really personal touch.

Christmas Cards

i

Whether its scribbly, daubed, exuberant or precise there’s nothing like childrens art! When making cards the trick is to keep the art away from the card itself until the last minute!

Cut out stars, Christmas trees, angels, baubles etc in card and let them loose with felt tips, crayons, paint, tissue paper etc. (not good at drawing?

Download some shapes from the internet - Activity Village is a good source) Once the artist has finished glitter can be applied.

Glue a square of thickish card on the back, fold an A4 or A5 piece of card in half, apply glue to the square of card and stick it on to the front, or arrange one from each child. Cut a piece of paper, fold and fit as leaves inside the card for messages and names...once complete run glue down either side of the fold and stick into the card.

Enjoy!
