Winter break is fast approaching whilst the kids may have lots of new gadgets to play with, nothing beats getting them together to take part in some good old fashion Christmas crafts. From Christmas cards to tree decorations, you can make absolutely anything.
With that in mind, here are 6 Christmas crafts to try at home with the kids:
Put Together A Festive Garland For Your Fireplace
Making a garland is a great way to get your kids involved in creating something that you’ll be using for years to come. To begin, all you need to do is create a rope using old tights twisted together. Once you’ve created your base you can add leaves and any other decorations you like. It’s a great way to make a garland that represents your family, using all your favourite things.
Make Your Own Christmas Wreath
Similarly to a garland, making your own Christmas Wreath is a great way to make something that truly represents your entire family. Once you have your base you can absolutely anything you want to make it your own.
Create A DIY Sign For Santa
With the big day getting close, your kids will want to let Santa know where they live, right? Making a sign that says ‘Santa Stop Here’ is a great way to get them excited for his arrival! You may need to get a couple of supplies in (including a vinyl cutting machine from vinylcuttingmachineguide.com), but this will be a fun craft that’s definitely worth it - especially when you can use the sign year after year.
Be as creative as you can, as you’ll want it to stand out for Santa!
Design Your Own Christmas Cards
Creating your own Christmas cards is a personal way to wish everyone in your family a Merry Christmas. You can be as creative as you like AND it gives your kids a chance to get involved with Christmas traditions early. Whether you use photos or create your cards from scratch - it’s something your kids will love doing with you.
For Christmas card inspiration, you can visit websites like Pinterest and Instagram.
