Christmas is a time of magic, wonder, and endless creativity for kids. From unwrapping presents to festive treats, children adore the holiday season. This year, why not bring a touch of that Christmas joy into your home with the KUB Hexacle Tuff Tray? It’s the perfect tool for creating engaging, mess-contained play activities, and it’s especially ideal for festive setups.

One of our favourite activities this season has been a glitter-themed sensory play session. Glitter adds a magical sparkle to any setup, and the kids couldn’t wait to dive in and explore! We filled the KUB Hexacle Tuff Tray with an array of colourful glitter, confetti, and festive decorations to create a shimmering holiday wonderland. It was a mesmerising activity that kept them entertained for hours, as they sprinkled, swirled, and crafted their own glittery masterpieces.

Christmas Tuff Tray Ideas

If you're looking for inspiration, here are a few fun ways to use the KUB Hexacle Tuff Tray this Christmas:

1. DIY Winter Wonderland

Fill the tray with fake snow, cotton wool, or white pom-poms to mimic a snowy landscape. Add small figurines like reindeer, penguins, or Santa’s sleigh for a magical setup. Kids can use spoons, cookie cutters, and small scoops to create snow shapes and scenes.

2. Festive Small World Play

Turn the Tuff Tray into a cozy Christmas village! Use toy houses, miniature trees, and LED tea lights for a festive glow. Add characters like elves or snowmen and let the kids craft their own holiday stories.

3. Decorate Christmas Cookies

Place the tray under your cookie decorating station to catch all the sprinkles, icing, and crumbs. It’s an easy way to keep the mess contained while kids enjoy their holiday baking.

4. Gift Wrapping Station

Set up the tray with wrapping paper scraps, stickers, and ribbons for kids to wrap their own "gifts." It’s a fun way to involve them in the holiday prep.

5. Christmas Potion Play

Fill bowls or cups with “magic” ingredients like glitter, food coloring, or colored water, and let kids mix their own festive potions. Add pipettes or droppers for an extra sensory element.

6. Christmas Craft Corner

Use the Tuff Tray to hold crafting supplies like glue, sequins, and paper. Kids can make their own ornaments, cards, or holiday decorations while keeping the mess in one place.

Tips for Snow-Themed Play

• Use Realistic Snow Alternatives: Fake snow powders like ‘Sno Play’ are easy to mix and safe for kids.
• Keep Tools Handy: Include cookie cutters, scoops, and small cups to encourage imaginative play.
• Add Longevity: Keep the snow in a sealed container between play sessions—it can stay soft and fluffy for days.
