    • Cut out Santa's face(without the beard) from construction paper.
    • Cut out a piece of 11" by 11" contact paper.
    • With the sticky side up, attach this contact paper on the 12" by 12" colored paper using tape.
    • Now stick Santa's face on the top part of the contact paper. Only the lower half of the face is on the contact paper.

    We repeated this activity a couple of times until the contact paper is no longer sticky. One time, my daughter wanted to make the longest beard for Santa. Another time she wanted to make a big beard for Santa. She had so much fun! I hope your little ones like this activity too.
