Getting Festive With Ben and Holly

You may have noticed that the Christmas countdown has begun and this hasn't been unnoticed by Ben and Holly either. Over on their site they have plenty of activities to get your children in the festive mood whilst providing some fabulous rainy day entertainment. There is even a competition to enter too.

We were kindly sent printouts of each of the activities available. These include Christmas cards, letters to Santa, festive dot to dot and cracker making.

I decided to split the activities, doing one with each of the girls.

Layla chose the card to colour in, she even wrote a message inside of it.

Gracie has been on about writing her letter to santa for a while now and was pleased to see that the things she was asking for her are definitely wrapped and waiting.

Freya got the task of dot to dot, a great little activity for little ones learning their numbers as it teaches both number recognition and counting.

Lastly Elise had a go at making her own cracker, I've popped the instructions for this below.

What Christmas activities do you have in store for your children this festive season?
