Resources

Ingredients (makes 6-8 reindeer bags):

2 cups oats
1 cup mixed seeds or wild birdseed
⅔ cup dried cranberries
⅓ cup chopped dried apricots
pinch of magic!
Equipment:

6-8 clear disposable piping bags or cone shaped cellophane bags
6-8 long brown pipe cleaners
12-16 googly eyes
glue stick
single hole punch.
String
Labels (see free printable below)

Instructions

Pour the oats, seeds, ½ of the cranberries and all of the apricots into a large bowl. Get the kids to add a pinch of magic from a bowl or the air for extra fun!

Give everything a good stir until it is completely combined.

Divide the remaining cranberries between the bags.

Spoon the reindeer food mixture into the bags on top of the cranberries.

Wrap a pipe cleaner around each bag to tie it closed, then wrap the two loose ends around your finger to curl into antlers.

Glue two googly eyes onto each bag.

Print off as many labels as you need, then cut each label down to size and punch a hole in each one.

Tie a label onto each reindeer with string.

Store in a cool dry place until Christmas Eve, when you can sprinkle the reindeer food outside your house to attract Santa's reindeer!
