Always love playing around with oranges and cloves, and the smell of the orange/cloves combination that it creates around the house is so wonderfully Christmas’y…there is no right or wrong way to do this and promotes excellent concentration and hand/eye co-ordination in a child. The more cloves in the orange the more concentration achieved!!!! and the more incredible the smell.

what you need…

  • thin ribbon
  • oranges
  • cloves

what to do…

  1. tie the ribbon around the orange leaving plenty to spare should you wish to hang as a decoration
  2. take your cloves and pierce into the orange filling in as much of the gaps as possible
  3. once the desired effect is achieved hang around the house and enjoy the Christmas aroma fill the room
