Here is are two economical, quick and simple ways to decorate a child's Christmas tree or presents with all of his or her favorite characters from Peanuts. I will use these little paper ornaments to decorate a classroom Christmas tree with.

Above is a photo of both the original Peanuts wrapping paper
(right) and the cut-outs pasted onto a piece of blue construction paper
(left). My children cut the shapes out two to three times after pasting
the pictures to red, yellow, blue and green papers. Each time they cut
out their little tags, they would leave a narrow boarder around the tag.
This made their tags heavier and more durable as well as adding more
bright colors to the tags.

These Christmas Peanuts tags may be used to decorate gifts with
if you'd prefer. I will hang them on a Peanuts themed Christmas tree in
our classroom after they have been laminated; this will ensure that the
decorations will last for several years.

Above is a Christmas bauble made by layering Snoopy and Woodstock
character wrapping paper onto a light weight plastic Styrofoam ball
with white glue. After the glue dries, add a thick coat of acrylic
varnish to polish off your Christmas ornament creation!
