Encourage the children in your care to enter the spirit of Christmas by creating some attractive gifts to give to special people in their lives.
Sweet and spicy
* Make spice biscuits, using Christmas cutters to create festive shapes.
Pierce a hole in each one and bake until brown. Help the children to pipe their chosen picture or message on to the surface with icing. Thread thin ribbon through the hole to hang up the biscuits.
* Create individual Christmas puddings by putting the mixture into yoghurt pots and sealing them with greaseproof paper. Steam the pots over a pan of water.
