Bells Arts & Crafts
Aluminum Foil Bells
Cover styrofoam cups
with aluminum foil. Attach pipe cleaner.
Insert the pipe cleaner up through the center of the bell.
Bend the pipe cleaner to make a hanger.
Foam Bell
Cut out two bell shapes from craft foam for each child. Use a hole
punch to
make a hole at the top of each bell shape. Thread a jingle bell onto
a pc. of
ribbon. Put a line of glue down the center of one of the foam bells
and lay the
ribbon along it so that the jingle bell pokes out at the bottom.
Glue the second
foam bell on top of the first so that the ribbon is sandwiched between the
two
bell shapes. (Hot glue gun works best) Thread another ribbon
through
the holes at the top of the bell. Tie a knot in the ribbon and hang.
Jingle Bell Rock
Cut bell shapes from cardstock or poster board. Have each
child decorate a bell shape
with crayons
or markers. Laminate them. Hot glue a real jingle bell
to the bottom of
each laminated bell shape and tape a popsicle stick to the back of the
laminated bell shape. Let your children shake their bells to
Jingle Bell Rock!
Christmas Bell
Make a Christmas bell from a plastic cup. Punch hole in the
bottom of the cup and attach a pipe cleaner and jingle bells.
Paper Christmas Bell
Trace around a bell
pattern and cut out.
Add a dinger and a real ribbon at the top.
Styrofoam Cup Bells
Make styrofoam cup bells by painting or decorating the outside of
a cup with markers
and stickers. Then thread a pipe cleaner through the top and make a
loop on outside
to hold the bell. Thread on a jingle bell on the inside pipe cleaner
and tie knot at the end.
Bell Shakers
Make a shaker for your child by putting two or three jingle bells
into a small box or a paper
towel tube and securely tape the container closed. Let the children
decorate their shakers by gluing
or taping on short crepe-paper streamers. Have them shake
their shakers all around to make the bells ring.
