Things to do with Wrapping Paper Scraps

After wrapping all of your Christmas presents, you have all these scraps of wrapping paper lying around.  You just ball them up and thrown them away right? NOPE!  Not if you teach small children.  You can use these wrapping paper scraps for several fun, seasonal activities!


One thing my kids loved was having these blocks to play with.  I wrapped several of our smaller blocks and added them to our normal blocks and let them have a festive addition to play with!


I also cut some of the pictures off the wrapping paper and let my kids create their own ornament for our tree.  They glued the cut out pictures to their ornament template and decorated it.


We also save the covers of all the Christmas cards we have.  We sort them according to theme or color.  We also separate out the ones that have a match and play matching games with them!


Other Ideas for Wrapping Paper Scraps:
1.  Use the cut out pictures to glue onto newsprint to make your own wrapping paper.
2.  Use the cut out pictures to make your own Christmas cards.
