Santa’s magic key

    What you need

    • Cardboard to make the key and tag (any colour cardboard is suitable).
    • Ribbon
    • Verse – “Dear Santa, We don’t have a chimney in our house. Please use this special key instead! Lots of love …………….”

    How to make Santa’s magic key

    • Use the template to cut out a piece of cardboard to make Santa’s magic key.
    • Use a scrap of cardboard to make the tag – make sure it is big enough to fit the verse on.
    • Punch a small hole in both the key and the tag.
    • Decorate the key with glitter, sparkles, drawings or stickers etc.
    • Copy out the verse onto the tag.
    • Attach the tag to the key with ribbon.
    • Leave enough ribbon to make a loop to hang up the key if required.

    Hint

    • Now you can put some of your scrap booking gear to work! Use a fancy hole punch to make the holes in the key and the tag. Round off the corners of the tag with a “corner cutter”.
    • If you are not going to be home at Christmas, you could change the wording on the verse to read:”Dear Santa, We won’t be at our house this Christmas. Please use this magic key to visit us on Christmas Eve. Lots of love ……………”
