Yellowmoon don't only sell arts and crafts supplies for children, they also sell stocking fillers and party bag supplies too! We were sent these Tumbling Snowmen and Santa beard whistles to review.

First we tried out the stretchy snowmen. They are 70mm and your throw them gently onto a shiny, surface and the tumble down. The hands and feet and also middle part of the body are sticky which helps them stick to the surface and tumble down! We tried ours on the kitchen cupboard and this is what happened!

In our box of goodies we were sent from YellowMoon were these festive Reindeer gift bag kits. Ellie & Charlie could not wait to make these! They had already decided that they're going to fill them with sweets and treats and gift to Nanna & Grandad for Christmas.




Each pack includes for kits. Enough supplies to make four reindeer gift bags. Including the foam shapes (some which are self adhesive), goggly eyes and the brown paper gift bags.
You will also need some PVA glue (for sticking the antlers and ears on).


First of all we peeled the back off of the (what will be) the reindeer's face, it's self adhesive and stuck perfectly onto the bag. Next up Ellie and Charlie stuck the reindeer's collars on and then we glued on the antlers and ears! "Ohhh it's already looking like a reindeer" Ellie told me proudly. And Charlie said "I really like this activity, it's really fun! I think Nanna and Grandad will really like these bags a lot! And we won't need to wrap the presents" Bless him.

Ellie was all "Yes! Pink ears are my favourite! And I love his big, red sparkly nose on! I'm calling my reindeer Rudolph!" And then she proceeded with singing 'Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer' whilst making her festive bag, haha.


The kids really, really enjoyed this festive craft. They didn't need any help from me and it kept them busy for a good twenty five minutes or so. They really took there time placing all the shapes in the right places and making them look cute! The bag sizes are 11x12cm and they have a little handle on the top, making them easy to carry. The kids are very proud of these bags and excited to gift them at Christmas.
I can see this becoming a new tradition - Making Christmas bags to fill with gifts and treats for the Grandparents.


Don't they look adorable? (Minus the falling ear, haha and the PVA dried clear!)

Priced at just £3.75 for a pack of four, I honestly think that is money very well spent! You can also follow Yellowmoon on Pinterest for more festive fun ideas!

What festive activities have you been doing recently? Let me know in the comments, I'd love to hear about them! :)

I was sent this product for the purpose of this review. All opinions are my own, honest, personal opinions. I was not paid for this post.

In our box of arts and craft supplies that Yellow moon sent us to review were these very festive Christmas glasses.

The Christmas glasses kit contains four sets of glasses, the foam self adhesive shapes to decorate the glasses, some googly eyes and of course the glasses themselves (4 assorted designs).


We decorated the penguin and santa pairs of glasses.

Ellie got stuck right into this along with her 4 year old cousin. The glasses are made of plastic and the shapes are made of foam.


We checked all the contents of our kits and started decorating straight away! The foam self adhesive shapes just peel off and stick straight onto the glasses.


"They peel off so easy and stick so well" Ellie told me, she's right! It's very easy to do and great fun. Her four year old cousin had no problem decorating the Santa glasses!


It took about ten minutes to finish the glasses. Ellie pointed how much she loved the little hat and scarf on her penguin glasses. "Super dupet cute" she told me. I did have to help sticking the gooly eyes on though as they were a bit fiddly, but I don't mind.

These gasses are the perfect Christmas craft activity for children aged three years and over. They make no mess and the kids can do them all by themselves! It's a quick and easy craft project for the kids and I also feel they'd make a lovely stocking filler too.
"I'm going to wear these to my school Christmas party" she declared, rather proudly I might add! Bless her.



Priced at just £3.99, they are well worth the money in my opinion. I would recommend these and we certainly make them again. :)

Yellowmoon sent us these Star Glitter Wands Kits to review. Ellie was super excited because she loves being creative and she loves glitter, so this wand kit was a huge hit with her.




Each kit has four kits to make four stars wands.

4 assorted colours (red, blue, orange and purple)
A foam star shape, some tony foam self adhesive squares.
Ribbon
And a stick.
Instructions are also included.
Priced at £3.75.

You will also need some PVA glue for sticking the stick onto the back of the wand.


 Ellie took out her foam star shape, she picked purple as purple is her favourite colour. She then began sticking on the glitter squares. The back the squares just peel off, making them easy to stick onto the star template. Ellie had trouble doing this and she found it really quite fun!

After about ten minutes, she has finished decorating her star, she asked me to help her tie the ribbons onto the stick. "Io looks like a Christmas star" She told. And yes, they are quite festive for Christmas and new year too, perhaps! 

Once we'd tied on the ribbon, it was time to stick the stick onto the back of the star. We used PVA glue and waited for that to dry. I thought we'd best secure it wish a square of cellotape, which Ellie also thought wasa good idea "just in case the star fall off when I wave it around" Ellie said.

That's it. The star wand was finished. "It's so sparkly and cool" is how Ellie described it. The approximate size of the star wand when finished is 30cm.


 In my opinion they are well worth the money, kept Ellie busy for a good twenty minutes with very little help from me and no mess! Definitely a winner all around. These would also make a lovely gift, a stocking filler maybe.

I would definitely recommend these to any child who enjoys being creative! Please note, these kits are aged 3+

Halloween is approaching fast! In fact it's everywhere I look. We really love Halloween, the kids are super excited about and you can imagine how excited they were to make these frightful halloween handprint bat decorations that yellow moon sent us!


Each kit contains: 
4 foam bats
Coloured foam in four different coulors for the hand prints
Ribbon
Self adhesive shapes for decorating
split pins
Googly eyes.


First of all we drew around our hands and cut those out, then we used the split pins to attach the hands or "wings" to the foam bat shape. The bat size is approximately 14cm.


We loved decorating our bats with there sparkly tummies and ears! "The eyes and mouth look funny and creepy" Ellie told me! Haha. I did have to supervise and help the kids out a little bit with these because cutting was involved and the split pins needed some adult supervision. I enjoyed it though! And the kids enjoyed it. I like the fact no mess was involved and no glue is needed!


It's really easy, simple halloween craft activity that everyone can enjoy. Priced at just £3.75 for four bats, you can't really grumble! they are well worth the money and look fantastic hanging on the window handles. Making our own halloween decorations is now our new halloween tradition!


Do you have any Halloween traditions? I'd love to about them hear them if you do. :)

Yellowmoon sent us these spooktacular Halloween mask kits to make!
Halloween is an exciting time of year, my little's really enjoy Halloween and are very excited about it! They could not wait to try these masks.


 This kit includes four separate designs - a witch, a pumpkin, a bat and Frankenstein and everything you need to make the masks - A foam elasticated mask, foam self adhesive shapes and decorations.



 Ellie chose the bat and Charlie chose Frankenstein.


They had fantastic fun sticking on the shapes and decorations, making there masks spooky. The self adhesive shapes are really easy stick, no glue is needed! The black just peels off and you stick them in place to decoate the masks! "This is really good fun, mine is going to look so spooky" Ellie told me. Bless her!


 Charlie and Ellie couldm't wait to try them on when they were finished!



Of course, they wanted to make the other masks, too! Ellie thought the pumpkin was rather cute, aww.

 
These would be perfect for trick or treating or even Halloween parties! Yellowmoon sell a really good selection of Halloween arts and crafts. Charlie & Ellie are going to wear there masks when they answer the door to the trick or treaters.

We're super excited for Halloween!
What are your little one's dressing up this Halloween?

Yellowmoon sent us a leaf stained glass effect decoration kit to review. Ellie couldn't wait to get stuck into these. We really love arts and crafts a lot. Especially Autumnal arts and crafts because it's our favourite time of year.


First of all we took everything out of the packet to see what the kit contained. It contained cardboard shaped leaves, in three assorted designs, some ribbons, some sheets of coloured cellophane.

Ellie enjoyed cutting out the cellophane and sticking it onto the back to leaf! Ellie realised it didn't need to be neat because it was the back of the leaf. So she happily stuck her cellophane shapes onto the back of the leaf, making a pretty pattern.

"There's so many Autumn colours" Ellie told me! She was excited to use purple, purple is her favourite colour!
Ellie took her time making her leaf and creating a pretty effect. She really enjoyed making stained glass leafs.
 Priced at just £3.99 for a pack of 6, they are well worth the money. They kept Ellie entertained for quite some time and are perfect for a rainy day activity! I also feel these would make a lovely gift for any child who loves arts & crafts.

They look so pretty hanging up on the kitchen window. Perfect for our favourite time of year and a lovely Autumn decoration.
