This year Christmas will be very special as most of us will spend a lot of time indoors. Christmas is all about spending time with family and friends and making fun memories that will last a lifetime—this is especially true when it comes to children. This year indoor activities are the best option. Holiday movies are not a bad alternative but how long can you sit in front of the TV screen… So, in my opinion, making Christmas crafts with the help of kids is a much better option!
The best part about these projects? They make meaningful and personal holiday decor and are also perfect for gifting. Doing them every year will also make a great Christmas family tradition! Whatever you and your little or big ones choose to create, the most important thing is that you’ll be spending quality time together—and who doesn’t want that around the holidays? Grab some glue sticks and paint, and get started making one of on our favorite Christmas crafts for kids.
There are endless variations of Christmas craft kits in the market. I made a shortlist of the most popular to help you to decide what is best for you.
1. You can create a cross stitch cushion for your home. It’s the perfect way to stitch your way to a stylish accessory that will brighten up any room for the festive season, or it can make for a great gift to a friend this Christmas.
The problem is that the craft which includes sewing is not exactly suitable for children, because it requires fine motor skills of the fingers when working with a needle.
2.There are several baking kits that are available on the market. Holiday baking isn’t just about indulging in treats—it’s about making lifelong memories with your family. This cookie baking set is fun. Children can roll, bake, decorate, and devour their very own Frosty using the friendly tools.
This kit is not bad though rather expensive.
3.Your kids can create a beautiful holiday craft with this snowman craft kit.
This is craft kit made in China, and it is not clear if there are detailed instructions and if it has appropriate quality control and it is safe for kids use.
4. The best kits available that have it all, including a very detailed illustrated tutorial, are in this link https://jerusalemjewels.com/shop/?swoof=1&product_cat=christmas-diy-kits. It is something interesting, new, and fresh. This is something that does not require sewing or dyeing. It is suitable for beginners and at the same time children over the age of 12 can do it. The result does not have to be perfect, but with all the illustrated guidance it is close to it. And you have a choice to finish it as a Christmas tree ornament or a hair accessory. Therefore, the resulting snowflake ornament or hair accessory can make a beautiful gift made with love for mom, aunt, or anyone who loves the Christmas theme. Each one costs $13.5, so the price is very reasonable, even low for what you get. And it is handmade from Israel!
