This hand and foot reindeer by Busy Bee Kids Crafts makes a great gift!
Kids (and parents) love personalized crafts. They make great gifts during the Holiday's. I thought these personalized elves from Ramblings of a Crazy Woman were so fun (and hilarious!).
I have fond memories of creating a paper plate Santa when I was younger.

Dramatic Play Ideas
Your Dramatic Play Space can be transformed into "Santa's Workshop" This week. Take a closer look at our Santa's Workshop Dramatic Play Pack here. Your Kids will have fun building toys. You can add wooden blocks, play tools, and Paint Brushes. For Dress Up fun: Add Santa Hats, Elf Hats, and Reindeer antlers to your space this week (or the kids can make their own). Scout thrift stores for Santa, Elf and Reindeer Costumes.
Don't forget a place for Santa. A comfy chair, and a place for him to write his list. If you feeling up to a DIY Challenge, create a Sleigh from a cardboard box (or decorate a Children's sled). Children can take turns loading it up with presents, and pulling it.

Construction and Small World Play Ideas
Let the children deck the pretend houses in the construction space this week. In addition to play houses, you can add play people and cars to your building space this week. Add mini trees, and pretend gifts that children can use in the space. The Christmas Room Play Set from Playmobil will add hours of fun to your construction area.

Community Member Mary Beth Filegan transformed this regular dollhouse into a Christmas themed play house.
Add Santa and his helpers to your Construction Space. Add "Snow" felt, and Evergreen trees to your space, so that the children can re-create the North Pole.

Santa and his helpers book Picks
This Magnetic Dress Up Santa comes with 21 pieces of clothing for a variety of occasions. He'd also make a great addition to the Book "Santa Retires" by David Biedrzycki. He's easy to assemble and helps teach independent play, hand eye coordination, and matching skills.One of my favorite fine motor toys to incorporate into the space this week is this this Melissa and Doug Magnetic Dress-Up Santa.
