Holiday Math Manipulatives

Recently I was shopping with my family in Walmart for holiday decorations.  I found something amazing.  And CHEAP.  The name on the package says confetti.  I don't consider it to be confetti, but I did think that it would be great to use in math tubs as manipulatives.

Check it out:

I thought they were so cute!  I know that it is kind of hard to tell, but they are little gift packages.  There are 36 in a bag, and I am pretty sure they were only 97 cents!!  I found them in the holiday section that is in the Garden Center area of the store. 

Does anyone else have suggestions for fun and inexpensive holiday manipulatives?  Or manipulatives for any time of year?

Happy Sunday!
