I should think the marzipan might be doable? You just work it like
playdough (and it doesn't matter if it ends up in his mouth). Otherwise,
if he can handle scissors, then snowflakes should be doable; just fold up
a circle of paper, and get cutting.
This is the first year Benedict's made presents, as opposed to choosing
them.
