the christmas ornament conundrum.

the christmas ornament conundrum. by snowdeal.
the other day a local school held a christmas fair with a host of craft activities for kids which provided odin with his first opportunity to make a christmas ornament.

when he was making it we told him it would make the perfect gift for a grandparent, an idea that delighted him. but having given it more thought it would seem like we, his loving parents, should get first dibs on his very first christmas creation.

but if we do keep it, that would make us lying parents and bad children. perhaps a reasonable compromise would be to have him make a bunch more ornaments for all his grandparents ( and great grandparents! ) and tell everyone that the one they got was the first one he made :-)

Frankly I think Odin should start cranking these things out and you should manage sales and marketing. I'd buy an Odin Original!

I am probably ovr-interpreting, but I see the Three Kings and their camels in that ornament. I think parrents get first dibs, and Odin should just make more.

Love it love it. I helped the kids I sit for make salt dough ornaments and paint them, and I'm spraying them with clear sealer (from an arts & crafts store) to help protect them. The two-year-old's looked similar to Odin's, in that she used lots of paint and swirled it around, whereas the four-year-old was very deliberate in his placing of the paint. He kept saying he was an artist.

What is Odin's ornament made of?
