Christmas Lacing

We thought it would be fun to try lacing some Christmas mittens. Unfortunately we had broken the hole punch while building our catapults...oops.  I used a pencil to poke holes in these one, and then used a star-shape to punch the holes for my toddler.  The larger holes actually turned out to be easier for him to do the lacing.



There are lots of other options - stockings, snowflakes, snowmen...
I would say, though, that the sturdier the paper is, the better.  This was cheap construciton paper, and it ripped through the holes a few times.  I think that cardstock would be a better option.
