Oh, what fun it is to play in jingling winter wear. Make kids' spirits brighter by sewing bells to the cuffs of hats, the backs of mittens, and the ends of scarves. 

Rows of bells in two colors and sizes are sewn in a repeating pattern to the cuff of the hat. Silver bells sewn to the backs of basic red mittens will help a young owner identify them; the wool scarf is similarly trimmed, with little jingle bells in an icy blue.

You can even add pairs of bells to elastic hair bands, and make pigtails ring.
