Get ready to take control of the most important time of the year - and create your OWN Christmas!
It’s time to take control of your festive destiny, says the introduction to this activity book with a difference. That sets the tone for what follows – bright, really attractive pages full of instructions on how to make Christmas decorations and games, from the conventional (paper chains) to the out-of-the-ordinary (catapult powered sleigh launcher).
Good news for parents is that most projects use only scissors, glue, pens and pencils, though there are instructions on turning left-over Christmas dinner into paint! The book is livened up even further by the inclusion of Christmas jokes and quirky information boxes, how and why crackers bang for example, and will provide hours of fun. Andrea Reece

These pages are bursting with action-packed activities like you've never seen before: Make a sleigh launcher to start Christmas with a whizz Paint a festive scene with leftovers from your Christmas dinner Build a santa who can scramble up walls and windows Have a snowball fight, even when there isn't any snow Build your own Christmas cracker to start your celebrations with a BANG Plus many, many more inventive and exciting activities - this book will have you tearing, folding, cutting, experimenting and scribbling, as you create your very own Christmas!
