Footprint Reindeers

I love making footprint reindeers with the kids at Christmas.  They are so quick, easy and fun for then to make.  They also serve as a lasting reminder of just how little the kids were at the time.  All you need to make them is some red and brown paint, a red pom pom for the nose, some googly eyes and some cardboard.  The kids do their footprint in brown paint for the reindeer's 'face' and then two handprints in red paint for the reindeer's 'antlers'.  Glue the pom pom on for a nose and the googly eyes on when he is dry and that's it!  Easy!  It is, however, a little messy so make sure you have a bucket of soapy water nearby for the cleanup.  I got the kids to write their names and the year they made them (we made these ones last year).  Here's Jacob's and Esme's reindeers too...
