Homemade Christmas Crackers
A traditional English activity at Christmas, this makes for a fun and fanciful Christmas craft. It goes well with a study of Christmas around the world and can also make a great party favor.
This English tradition is fun and easy to make. Make a tube from your Christmas card, either using just the front part for a small cracker, or the whole card for a longer one. Tape the tube together. Fill the tube with tiny gifts and candy. Wrap the tube in brightly-colored tissue or wrapping paper, or with aluminum foil. Tie the ends with bright ribbon, leaving extra wrapping sticking out from each end. Present them as little gifts, use as stocking stuffers, party favors, put them in a care package, or save them for next Christmas—by then you’ll have forgotten what you filled them with! To open, simply pull the two ends simultaneously until it pops open and the goodies spill out. Kids love this!
