Send big holiday love on a small budget by sending these "Elf Tickets" this year...and give your child some writing practice in the bargain.

Ask your kids to write these one-sentence "Holiday Wishes." Without realizing it, they'll be building third grade Language Arts skills.

A twist on the gingerbread house, this train is made with graham crackers, icing, and candy decorations. A great 2nd-3rd grade holiday arts and crafts activity.
