			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="/images/stick-reindeer.jpg" alt="Popsicle Stick Reindeer" align="left" height="205" width="154" />A simple yet fun craft you and your child can make during the holiday Christmas season.</p>
<p>A few items you will need:<br />
* Glue<br />
* 3 popsicle sticks<br />
* 2 wiggly eyes<br />
* one red pom pom<br />
* Red or green ribbon<br />
* Brown Paint (optional)</p>
<p>Optional step: Paint the three popsicle sticks brown. Let dry!</p>
<p>Take the three popsicle sticks and glue them in a triangle shape as seen in above image. Let dry!<br />
Next, glue on the two wiggly eyes and glue on the red pom pom on the very tip to form the nose.<br />
Take about a 6 inch piece of ribbon and glue it in the center back of the top of the reindeer forming a loop. This will be used to hang the ornament on your tree. Let dry!</p>
<p>After all is dry, hang on tree. You will now have a cherished ornament that can be passed down to your child when they have grown and have their own tree to hang in on. Makes a great heirloom.</p>
