My kiddos LOVE watching "The Nutcracker Sweet" on Amazon Prime Video. It is a cute animated version of "The Nutcracker" and involves the evil Mouse King, lots of mice soldiers, and nutcracker battling around castles of candy. I decided to theme one of our Christmas sensory tables around this movie and "The Nutcracker" in general! The boys all helped me construct a block castle out of wooden blocks we already had. I hot-glued them together and then we used some acrylic paint to paint a red and black castle. I found these AWESOME Nutcracker wooden peg people on Amazon, and they helped me paint them as well! Lastly, we added some artificial snow (a bit messy!) and although 100% of the time I needed to sweep after they played, it was so much fun for them! They spent a long time recreating the movie scenes and battles!
