Make an Ironic Contrast
Are you looking for a way to give that artificial fiber optic Christmas tree a little of a natural feel? Here's a great idea using normal fruits you probably have in your kitchen: Peel some apples and allow them to shrivel. Once the apples have dried, invite the kids to make their own characters using the dried fruit.
Provide them with things like cinnamon sticks, orange peels, and cloves to create features, but make a rule that everything used must be natural. Then, let the children use their imaginations to create their own apple people. Hang the finished products on the tree. In addition to creating a brilliant natural contrast to the factory-made tree, the artistic characters will produce a delicious aroma that will fill the house.
