Kids Christmas Crafts
Christmas is one of our family's favorite holidays. With all the shopping, parties, and just plain running around that goes along with this holiday, we like to try to set aside some quality time with each other and our daughter to make some toddler Christmas crafts. Sometimes the crafts are Christmas gifts, sometimes Christmas decorations, and sometimes they are just a fun way to spend an afternoon! We've tried to include kids Christmas crafts here that are appropriate for a variety of ages and skill levels. All of these Christmas themed crafts were made in our own home so we know that they are fun and child-friendly. So light a fire in the fireplace, make some hot cocoa, put on your favorite holiday movie and gather the family around the table to make some of our great kids Christmas crafts!
Christmas Crafts for Kids
Our felt Christmas tree craft with removable ornaments is a fun Christmas craft for kids. It has many uses, from being a reward chart to being a fun holiday decoration! We've used this tree to practice counting and color matching as well with our toddler daughter.
With paper plates, paint, lots of glue and cotton balls kids will love making our fun cotton ball Santa craft. This kids Christmas craft was created because we found that it can be hard to find a good Santa Claus craft that younger children can do. Our cotton ball Santa craft has a bunch of fun textures and makes a great exercise in following directions. Your children will love the end result and it makes a great homemade Christmas decoration or gift.
This sugar cone Christmas tree craft is a wonderful preschool craft to make for the holidays. Our three year old daughter was able to decorate her tree all by herself and she had a blast doing so. All you need is some green icing, sugar cones, and some candy decorations and you can make this fun Christmas craft with your kids.
Our tissue paper wreath craft is a great craft to do with younger children. With lots of glue (enough to paint with a paintbrush!) and lots of crumpled tissue paper this is a simple craft that turns out great every time! It makes a fantastic homemade Christmas decoration for your home!
Turn a few simple shapes into a beautiful Christmas tree with our Shape Christmas Tree craft. Our provided template makes this simple paper craft that much easier to do. This is a great preschool Christmas craft and a fantastic decoration for the holiday.
By stacking the foam stars you can create a perfect Christmas tree which makes a great Christmas craft for kids. This foam star Christmas tree craft is a great way to teach your kids to look at something familiar in a whole new way.
This handprint reindeer is one of our favorite kids Christmas crafts. Made from your child's footprint and handprints it's a great way to capture a memory of when your children are small. The handprint reindeer craft is easy enough for even very young children to do and makes a great homemade Christmas gift or even Christmas card for grandparents and family.
Need a homemade Christmas decoration? Try making a beautiful wreath for your front door out of a paper plate and some paper holly leaves. Our Holly Leaf Wreath craft is a simple preschool Christmas craft made with materials you most likely have on hand.
Our styrofoam Christmas tree craft is a lot of fun to do! It has a variety of new textures, materials, and techniques that are appealing to kids. Kids get to paint over styrofoam with glue, rip apart tissue paper, and play with glitter and in the end they will have created a beautiful craft that is even worthy of being given as a homemade Christmas gift!
This styrofoam Santa craft was created because we needed a new homemade Christmas decoration for our mantel! Coupled with the styrofoam reindeer craft it's a fantastic decoration. With a styrofoam ball, felt, cotton balls, paint and glue your kids can make this great Christmas craft too!
With handprint antlers and a simple paper plate head our paper plate reindeer is a great kids Christmas craft to do on a cold winter afternoon with materials you most likely already have on hand. It is a cute, simple craft that is great for the younger set.
Our styrofoam reindeer craft is a fun Christmas craft for kids to do using some different materials like styrofoam and pipe cleaners which have great textures. The addition of a jingle bell collar makes this craft even cuter! When set next to the styrofoam Santa craft above, this craft makes a fantastic homemade Christmas decoration for your mantel.
Use our template to create a foam gingerbread man craft! We decorated our gingerbread man traditionally, but encourage your kids to use their imaginations and decorate their gingerbread man or woman however they would like! Add a hat, a skirt, or even shoes - anything to make it fun! This craft is very toddler friendly as well.
We are always looking for new ways to pass out our daughter's photo at Christmas time. This fun idea was made from a wooden "tag" bought at a craft store, but we've included a template of the craft so that you can make it out of any material you'd like.
