We've made golden chains and bells for our tree. Let's try to put on it some cones for sweets!

Other Adornments For Children\\\'s Christmas Tree
What else children like to find on their tree? Sweets, of course. We can pinch the edge of the golden paper that wrap the sweets without taking off the chocolate content. We direct a thin thread in the hole in its paper and make a chain link long enough to hang the sweet in the tree. We can also make a few cones of hard paper to put the sweets in them and then to put them on the tree. We draw some larger circles than those for the bells. We can use a round bottom of a plate to help us draw perfect circles on hard paper. We cut the circle shapes with a pair of scissors and then we cut a line from an edge to the bottomm of the circle we roll a cutting edge over the other one and fix them together with staples or glue. we can make two small holes in the cardboard and make two velvet or golden ribbons that will make the cone hang on a tree branch. The cones may be adorned with ribbons, tale characters or little golden spheres. We fill them with sweets wrapped in paper and then we hang them on our children's Christmas tree.

The cardboard supports for sweets may have other shapes than cone also. One can cut an oval cardboard shape to be used as a bottom. A rectangular shape of colourful paper can be sewn all around the bottom. Two ribbons will help us hang the support on a branch.

The tale characters can make our tree more good looking. We can find ready made cardboard images in bookshops. They may hang from branches or may be stuck on other tree adornments. children who can draw beautifully have now a great opportunity to display their own little drawings by thrusting them with a needle and direct a nice golden thread through them as to attach them on the tree.

The red socks or boots with all kind of fine margins and adornments are also dear to Santa, who loves to find them in children's room and parents' room as well. The little knitters can make their Christmas socks, or the painters may draw a few and hang them on branches.

I wish you a merry Children's Christmas with lots of presents and dear moments you'll remember when you'll be grown ups!
