What to make from old light bulbs for the New Year

Last year, my husband and children decided to celebrate the New Year in the village with my grandmother. She was looking forward to our arrival: she set the festive table, prepared a lot of goodies, and under the tree the children were already waiting for gifts. But the grandmother did not have time to dress the tree, and the toys remained in the attic.

And then I came up with an idea: what if you don't get ready-made toys, and try to do it? Christmas-tree Involvement of children in this creative process.

For the manufacture of toys, I decided to use acorns that my younger daughter collected on one of the autumn weekends spent in the village, as well as burnt out incandescent lamps that my grandmother, by chance, did not throw out.

Also useful were three transparent balls, which the son took with him instead of a box of cars. Well, since our grandmother is a music teacher, we asked her for a couple of sheets of music to use for decor.
