this might be a "German thing", but when I was in primary school we used to make straw stars before Christmas (to hang them on our Christmas-trees or put them on Christmas cards).

they might be old-fashioned but I like them ;)

lollipop sticks, sounds interesting... can you buy them without the lollipops or will the kids have to eat the candy part first?

hm, but they're plastic sticks, aren't they? hm hm.
I don't think I've ever made plastic stars... but well, if they're colourful and star-shaped, I'm sure the enviromnent won't even notice ;D
