Every Child Likes To Decorate Tree Child development experts say that children will enjoy Christmas more if they help in getting tne house ready for the coming of old Saint Nick. One of the most im portant duties, especially to a child, is that of decorating the tree. A little boy or girl will love the I opportunity to cut out cardboard stars, then dip them into a thick mixture of water " and . laundry i starch and finally, sprinkle them with artificial snow. Small gourds, seed pods and pine' cones can be treated in a like manner, after they've been painted with quick drying enamel, or with aluminum paint. Much pleasure will be derived by a child if he or she is allowed to make strings of cranberries, pop corn or small pieces of stale bread to hang on a special Christmas tree for the birds. Later children 'can string them about a shrub 1 or tree in the front yard, and watch the birds enjoy Christmas, too. Chamo Crocheter Information Please! Where's my long underwear?
