About this idea
The elf has dumped several cereal boxes creating a colorful mess on the kitchen floor and table. Position the elf in the middle of the chaos with a spoon, surrounded by scattered cereal pieces. Add a small sign that says 'Oops! Got a little hungry!' Optional: make cereal 'angels' or draw a cereal outline of the elf's body.
What you'll need
- Cereal boxes
- Spoon
- Small sign that says 'Oops! Got a little hungry!'
- Paper or marker for cereal angels or outline (optional)
How to set it up
- Dump the cereal from several boxes onto the kitchen floor and table to create a colorful mess.
- Place the elf doll in the middle of the scattered cereal pieces and position a spoon next to it.
- Set the small sign nearby that reads 'Oops! Got a little hungry!' and, if desired, draw cereal angels or an outline of the elf using cereal pieces.
Tips & variations
- For a mess-free version, use cereal pieces that can be easily cleaned up or pretend cereal (paper cutouts).
- Encourage kids to help clean up the 'crime scene' as part of the activity.
- Variations include creating cereal 'snow angels' or tracing the elf's body shape with cereal for a fun art project.
