Children love to make their own Christmas decorations and craft. And they love to see their handiwork on display.
These activities are not only fun, they’re easy, they can help develop fine motor co-ordination, and they leave you with cool decorations that can adorn the Christmas tree as well as around the rest of the house.
Give these Christmas craft ideas a try, and see which ones become yearly traditions.
Photo Baubles for the Christmas Tree
You’ll need:
- old cardboard boxes (cereal boxes are ideal) or paper plates
- thread
- photos
- scissors
- glue
- pom poms, glitter, feathers, and decorating items
Directions:
- Cut 2 circles out of the cereal boxes, each approximately 12 cm in diameter (or you can choose any size).
- Cut out of the centre of one circle to make a ring large enough for your chosen photo to be displayed in the middle.
- Sandwich your photo between the ring and use the full circle
