Stained glass-style decoration with lamination

[Christmas Craft] Easy Stained Glass-Style Decorations with Laminating and Coloring!

Why not make stained-glass-style decorations and enjoy Christmas together? First, cut out black frames in shapes like stars, trees, and hearts.

Once the frames are ready, sandwich them between laminating sheets and laminate them.

Since laminators get hot, be sure to do this where there are no children around.

Next, carefully cut around the outside of the laminated frame so the corners aren’t sharp.

Flip it over and draw straight-line patterns inside the frame.

Have the kids color them in with permanent markers.

Finally, punch a hole with a hole punch, thread a string through so it can hang, and it’s done.

The translucency is beautiful, so display them in lots of places!

Pinecone Tree

[Christmas Craft] Let’s Make a Pinecone Tree! [Nursery/Kindergarten] #KidsCraft #Handmade #PreschoolCraft

Here’s an idea for making a Christmas tree using pinecones you picked up on a fun walk.

Since you’ll turn the pinecone into a tree, paint it green.

If you add some white paint here and there, it will look like a snow-covered tree.

Then just decorate it with mini ornaments or beads and you’re done.

Placing a star on top will make it look even more like a Christmas tree.

If the pinecone tends to tip over, attach a base underneath that looks like a flowerpot to keep it stable.

Nodding Santa Claus

Christmas Craft [Nodding Santa Claus]: How to Make It Using a Paper Cup (For 4-Year-Olds)

A craft themed around Santa Claus, the iconic symbol of Christmas, is sure to instantly boost children’s excitement and anticipation.

By attaching facial parts for Santa to a pipe cleaner inserted into a paper cup, you can easily make a bobble-head style figure that nods thanks to the pipe cleaner’s springiness.

You can also express Santa’s outfit by sticking red origami paper onto the cup and let kids freely draw Santa’s face, which helps bring out their individuality.

When making the hole in the paper cup to insert the pipe cleaner, be very careful not to puncture your hand with an awl or other tool.
