    Wallpaper/lining paper - hand prints, footprints, drawing round the body to make 'people'.

    Sand pictures - Hand/foot in glue, press onto card and then pour sand over gluey card. Excess sand can go back in the pot.

    Dough hedgehogs - Make a ball out of salt dough, flatten one side, pinch a nose into dough and then use pasta shapes for spikes.

    Pasta necklaces or pictures. You can dye the pasta using food colouring and vinegar (make your dye, put pasta & dye into a bag or tube, shake it hard, then lay pasta on a tray to dry). If you want to make necklaces with rigatone/macaroni then straws make good 'needles' for little ones.

    I know - I just want to find out where the heck the pack of mine that I can't find anywhere and know are in the house somewhere have gone to!!! It's driven me nuts for about 2 years now wanting to know where they've disappeared to!

    For my 3 year old, I just tend to let her loose with newspapers and the Argos catalogue and a pair of (safety) scissors. And glue, and glitter, and lots of it!
