Make Hamburger cookies. Kids of all ages like this. You just need vanilla wafers, which will be the "hamburger buns" and then you use different colors of frostings/icing for the ingredients. You can have brown for the "burger" and then yellow for "mustard", red for "ketchup", white for "onion," etc. Make them as tall as you want with as many different colors as you want, and then the kids eat them up!

craft ideas
I used to teach preschool and one year we made wreath banners using large white paper and green paint. These have to be quite large. Trace a circle in the center and then have the kids dip their hands in green paint and place them around the circle until it looks like a wreath. After it is dry, they can use red paint and their hands to make a "bow" at the bottom. Fringe the bottom with scissors and use a string to hang. Another idea is to use small squares of green tissue paper and a cut out circle. Using the eraser of a pencil "twist" the square and glue to the cut out until it is covered with green tissue twisties. Decorate with red ribbon.
there is a craft pen - permanent -
I have one in gold. it was used on glass x-mas ornaments we made and dated, and it was used to autograph a guitar (Alice Cooper) because of its permanent nature. Neither rubbed off.
Came in gold and silver, not sure what other colors. This might work.
Also, I agree below, clear fingernail polish on the next new one before using.
Me too, what is it? Craft or exercise? I enjoy

tissue paper and other craft
Hi: try www.kidsturncentral.com and click on Christmas to see if there is anything there you could use for the kids. Hope you find something. Happy Holidays.
BFA in Jewelry/Metals, did craft shows here and there but did not make a living -sm
goal though for this Fall or soon that is, is to get my work done by noon, then spend 3 hours at least 2 x a week in my studio which I have not touched in about 6 years.....see if maybe I can get the ball rolling again with that via local shops, studios, etc. Used to have reps that sold my jewelry in Philly which was quite nice.
Some of the craft stores like Michael's carry them in funky colors, too. nm

Does anyone have any good craft ideas for 5th graders to do during Christmas party? sm
I am usually in charge of my younger kids' classroom parties, but this year I am doing the 5th graders. I need a good craft for them to do during their party. Something easy and fun....but you know...not too baby-ish. Any help is appreciated!!! 
I use a craft glove with an extra long wrist band
purchased at wal-mart and they help ALOT.
