Sticking shapes and colours - my girl loves sticking pieces of different coloured tissue paper onto other paper.
Thank you for the tips!! Definitely gonna incorporate these things, we often do play dough but never thought to add things to it, definitely gonna give glueing and stuff ago and hope I’m not cleaning for hours 🤣🤣

You could get some Pom Pom balls and let her stick them on to paper. If you want to do something Christmas related, tinsel can be very helpful. Could make little tinsel pom poms, she could stick them on paper or could be making decorations to be hung up. I also find play dough is very good, although we have hard floors in the living room I know some people have carpet but in that case you could always put an old sheet down or something. If you have any cardboard you could make little shapes and then paint the shapes. You could also make little snowmen with cardboard, glue some tinsel on for a scarf, make a cardboard hat stick it on etc
