Children under 8 will need an adult to assist in the construction of the castles. Please bring an apron or t-shirt to cover garb since this could be a tasty but messy craft.

Stained Glass/Rose Windows: This is a coloured tissue paper craft where we are going to be making ornaments that you can hang in your window or Christmas Tree. We will be using paper frames, coloured tissue and ordinary white glue to make these wondrous decorations. Children under 8 will need an adult to assist them in the cutting portion of this craft.

Mini Marshmallow/Marshmallow Castle Building Contest: We will be supplying mini-marshmallow and regular size marshmallows, wooden skewers and toothpicks, glue,,,or you could chose to use the frosting from the cookie castles (if any is left and you are thinking on eating your creation after). The object of this contest will be to build the most amazing and artful marshmallow castle! Children under 8 can have the assistance of a childish adult for this task. The winner will receive a prize.
