320 Pieces, 160 Designs
The number worth paying attention to is the second one: over 160 designs, not 160 repeats. Trees, snowmen, stockings, reindeer, ornaments and lettering all appear, which keeps a child interested past the first ten minutes. With 320 pieces in total there is enough for a craft session, a few gift tags and a good handful left in the box when January comes around.
Quiet Time While Wrapping
Wrapping night goes better with something for the youngest person in the room to do. A sheet of these and a piece of plain kraft paper turns into decorated wrapping while the adults work through the pile. Older children take over the gift tags. The work happens at the same table, which is easier than sending someone off to another room and checking on them every ten minutes.
Invitations And Gift Tags
Plain invitations, place cards and thank-you notes take a sticker in the corner and are done. The same goes for a paper bag that has to become a gift bag in a hurry, or a jar of cookies going next door. Because they are made from non-toxic material and sit cleanly on smooth surfaces, they are also fine on the inside of a lunchbox lid or a pencil case.
Sticker Charts In December
December runs on small rewards. A sticker for a finished chore, a countdown chart on the refrigerator with one square filled in each morning, a treat bag sealed with a snowman - the box lasts because each use takes only one or two pieces. When the season ends, the sheets stack flat in a drawer instead of taking up shelf space with the ornaments.
