Looking for a fun distraction for your little ones while they wait for Santa to arrive?  Make some Christmas and Winter Flextangles!  

“What is a Flextangle?”, you ask?  A flextangle is a fun and fascinating homemade paper toy.  They’re colourful and rather addictive to play with, and they’re very easy to make!

My friend Manja over at Hattifant has made a series of 5 Christmas and Winter Flextangles, and she’s been kind enough to give the one below to me so that I can share it with you!
