Tired of making paper snow flakes? Check out this collection of Christmas Crafts for Kids. Crafts can be a fun project to do as a family but can also in some cases make really cute gifts. Some are great to do during a classroom parties also. Some crafts can become items your child wants to play with over and over again. There are so many ideas available, but here are a few of my favorites.
This Christmas Tree Water Painting Activity is MAGIC! Your kiddos will love how the colors magically appear when they just add water!
Have your kiddos roll out the butcher paper trace themselves, and decorate however they’d like! A Life-Size Gingerbread Man is a blast to design!
This Play Dough Gingerbread House idea could provide HOURS of fun!!
These cute DIY Christmas Candy Trees can be decorated a number of ways!
I know playing with one’s food isn’t usually acceptable, but in this case it is with our Candy Nativity Scene for Kids!

Here is a great craft that will let you use stuff you already have around the house. The recycled paper Christmas Tree is great for kids of all ages. Younger ones may need help cutting the paper and using the glue, but they will all have fun making these trees.

A curly twist on the jolly man’s beard using curled paper. This Santa is just cute. Another craft good for kids most ages with the younger ones needing a little help. But all kids will enjoy making Santa’s beard curly!

This time the jolly man has a beard of cotton balls. There is just something about gluing cotton balls to a piece of paper that kids just love. And this work of art will find a nice place hanging on your fridge for the remainder of the holiday season.

These “Sock Snow Dudes” are so cute and very easy to make. Most of the items used to make them you probably already have lying around your house. Great for a classroom project or to make at a holiday party. Or your kids can just make an entire snow dude family.

If your kids love watching the snow fall, let them make something that will allow them to see it even inside. This snow globe is so easy to make. Great for preschoolers and a good way to get rid of a few of those baby jars you’ve been saving.
