Sitting Pretty Place Tags

Why

Set your holiday table with these colorful, seasonal place tags. Everyone in your family will be Sitting Pretty!

Steps

1. Use Crayola® Scissors to cut enough squares of construction paper for each dinner guest.

2. Fold the squares in half, then use Crayola Gel Markers to create a holiday border for each place tag. Gel markers begin very light, then become bright and beautiful as they dry.

3. Write one person's name on each place tag. Use them to mark table settings for each person at your holiday dinner.

Safety Guidelines

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.

Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.

Interesting Info

Formal table settings have a definite place for each knife, spoon, and fork, as well each plate and glass. The place card goes behind the main plate, facing outward, so it can be viewed from the outer edge of the table as guests walk by.
