Landing Zone

Incoming! Give your elf a safe place to land after a night of travel back and forth to the North Pole!


Materials:

  • 4 popsicle sticks
  • Paint (optional)
  • Ribbon and/or string
  • Hot glue gun
  • Glue sticks

Instructions:

  1. Using hot glue, your elf will glue together four popsicle sticks to create a frame for their landing zone. (They may paint them in their favorite color first.)
  2. Next, they will glue strips of ribbon and string from one side of the frame to the other.
  3. Then, they will weave strips of ribbon and string from the top to the bottom of the frame, weaving it in and out of the strips they already placed, gluing the strips at each end.
  4. They will place their finished landing zone frame where they would like to land so they can return to it for you to find them in the morning!
