Magic Reindeer food

Getting ready for Christmas we thought we would do a small job to help Santa and his reindeer's find their way to our house.  Every year we have put out a carrot for Rudolf but this year we have decided to feed all of the reindeer, and we have made some magic reindeer food.  According to Soph this is best done in ones underpants !!!

 
  This is such a nice simple task to do and all you need are some oats and different glitters to add the magic and sparkle to the reindeer food.

First of all add some oats and then let your little one go to town shaking and sprinkling in some lovely silver glitter and maybe sing the Jingle bells song too.  Its quite good to add some bigger glitters so that really shows up as very twinkly and we added some lovely silver stars, of course after each type of glitter that was added there was much stirring to make sure the magic was well combined with the oats.  Finally we put our special magic reindeer food to a nice pot and put a ribbon on it and Sophie draw a lovely picture of Rudolf.
   
On Christmas eve we plan to sprinkle the magic food on the lawn so Santa and the reindeer can see the pretty sparkles from the sky and fly in for a nibble.
