Easy Christmas crafts to enjoy with kids! Make them with everyday materials.

Paper plate Christmas tree

Craft Play: Perfect for Christmas projects! Let’s make a Christmas tree with a paper plate.

This is a small Christmas tree mascot made by decorating a base crafted from a cut paper plate.

First, cut the paper plate in half, paint the rim brown for the trunk, then roll it into a pointed cone shape.

Next, glue small pieces of green origami around it as leaves, add decorations, and it’s done.

It’s important to attach the leaves firmly to cover the base and build up volume.

Since the overall design is simple, it might be nice to think about the surrounding scene and how you arrange it.

palm-sized tree

Here are some tree craft ideas that even kids can make.

Prepare pipe cleaners, beads, clay, plastic bottle caps, toothpicks, and washi tape.

First, thread beads onto a pipe cleaner at equal intervals.

Once threaded, coil it into a spiral, then pull the inside upward to form a tree shape.

Fix the pipe cleaner to a toothpick painted brown, and insert it into clay packed inside the cap to secure it.

Decorate the top of the tree with a star, and finish by adorning the sides of the cap with washi tape.

Let’s use handprint stamps to create Christmas art.

Using the shape of your stamped hand, you can make a reindeer or Santa Claus.

First, decide on your design, then paint your hand and stamp it! For a reindeer, paint your palm and your index and ring fingers with brown paint to represent the reindeer’s face and antlers.

For Santa Claus, stamp the handprint upside down to create his white beard.

Add small details like the face and hat using felt, construction paper, and pom-poms to give your artwork color and dimension, and you’re all done.

Fingerprint ornament

Simple yet cute! Here’s an ornament idea you can make with finger stamps.

Prepare lace paper doilies, circular colored cardstock and white cardstock, ink pads, round stickers, and pens.

Cut the colored cardstock smaller than the lace doily but larger than the white cardstock.

Glue them in order—colored cardstock onto the lace doily, then white cardstock on top.

Stamp fingerprints onto the white cardstock.

Next, use round stickers and pens to create snowmen or reindeer.

Finally, attach a string for hanging, and you’re done! It’s also fun to decorate the blank spaces with stickers or write “Merry Xmas.”

Ornaments that can be stuck on windows

@rima_asobi♬ Christmas standard song – 3KTrack

These are ornaments you can stick on windows or mirrors to boost the Christmas vibe, and they look very stylish.

Prepare a clear file folder, sequins, paper, felt-tip pens, and glue, then let’s make them.

Draw a circle on paper, place it inside the clear file, and drip glue over the top.

Sprinkle glitter or sequins over it and let it dry thoroughly.

Peel it off the clear file, and it’s done.

Stick it on a window to enjoy a festive atmosphere.

It might also be cute to draw boots, Santa Claus, and other illustrations on the paper.
