Craft ideas for a Christmas party that elementary school kids will love! Simple and exciting projects (11–20)
reindeer headband

Reindeer headbands are perfect for Christmas parties! First, let’s make the base using construction paper.
Cut the paper into a long strip to fit around your head, and glue two layers together for reinforcement.
Next, glue black construction paper on top, roll it into a circular shape, and let it dry for a day.
This adds curvature to the once-straight base so it fits around your head.
Once dry, attach reindeer antlers made from construction paper and colored paper to the base—and it’s done! Not just reindeer—depending on your ideas, you can make all kinds of headbands.
Snowman Lantern Made of Clay

Let me introduce a snowman lantern you can make with modeling clay! Even elementary school kids can make it on their own, so it’s perfect for a Christmas craft.
You’ll need a light, modeling clay, and paint.
First, attach the clay to the light.
Then roll some clay into a ball and attach it on top to make the snowman’s head.
Next, mix your favorite paint colors into the clay to make a scarf.
Roll the colored clay into thin ropes, twist two colors together, and wrap it around as the snowman’s scarf.
Finally, make the face and hat out of clay, and you’re done!
Christmas wreath

Let’s make a Christmas wreath using a paper plate.
Cut out a circle from the center, and use the outer ring as the wreath base.
Decorate it with colorful construction paper or felt and ribbons to create a festive wreath.
Adding nuts or pinecones will give it a lovely, wintry feel.
If you take your handmade wreath home, you can enjoy its charm right up until Christmas Day.
Making it together as a parent and child will foster creativity and is sure to make for an unforgettable Christmas.
Christmas mobile

This is a hanging ornament inspired by a Christmas tree, perfect for holiday decorations.
It could be fun to hang these small trees from a larger tree, too.
Cut several pieces of paper into tree shapes and fold each one in half.
Glue the central folded sections together to create a tree whose “wings” spread in several directions, then hang it with thread to finish.
It’s a delightful Christmas tree that twirls gently in a light breeze.
You can also enjoy customizing it by adding a star to the top or combining different colors.
Mini wreath ornament made of paper

I’ll show you how to make a Christmas wreath ornament that even elementary school kids can easily create! The materials are construction paper, tapioca (bubble tea) straws, embroidery thread, wood glue, and ribbon.
First, cut the construction paper into two strips measuring 30 cm × 0.5 cm and one strip measuring 15 cm × 0.5 cm.
Glue the two longer strips together with wood glue and wrap them around the straw.
Attach the shorter strip vertically, then remove everything from the straw and shape it into a wreath.
Finally, add a ribbon and thread, and your cute Christmas wreath ornament is complete!
