HOW TO MAKE A CHRISTMAS CRACKER


Marisol shows all the crackers we made in 6th grade.

Marisol ens ensenya tots els crackers que vam fer a sisè.


Christmas crackers are a part of Christmas celebrations in the United Kingdom. To make a cracker you need:
  • A piece of Christmas wrapping paper.
  • A toilet roll tube.
  • Curling ribbon. (If possible buy a “snap” to put the crack into your cracker.)
  • Scotch tape.
  • Scissors.
  • Gifts (Sweets, little toys...)

Els crackers Nadalencs formen part de les celebracions nadalenques al Regne Unit. Per fer un cracker necessites:

  • Paper de regal.
  • Un tub de cartró de paper higiènic.
  • Cinta de regal. (Si és possible pots comprar una petita tira explosiva per a col·locar a l'interior del teu cracker.)
  • Cinta adhesiva.
  • Tisores.
  • Regalets (Caramels, joguines petites, confetti...)

PICTURES AND INFORMATION FROM

1.Roll the wrapping paper around
