11 Christmas Art Craft For Kids
Christmas is a magical time for kids, and one of the best ways to make it even more magical is by creating some Christmas arts and crafts.
These projects are a great way to keep children entertained the week before Christmas. Whether you’re looking for ideas on how to decorate your home,
or simply something fun for kids to do while they wait for Santa Claus, these crafty suggestions will give you inspiration on what to make with your children this holiday season!
Christmas Tree Handprint
Materials
- Red and green paint in squeeze bottles
- Paintbrushes of varying sizes (one for each color)
- A Christmas tree template, if possible. You can draw it with a pencil on a piece of paper and trace it with a brush onto the back of your canvas. If you don’t have one, simply draw your own! This will be the guide for painting your star on top of your tree.
Steps
Set up an area where you can keep all your supplies together so they’re convenient to use as you paint each element of this activity. This is also a good time to set out any other materials needed for other crafts later in this article such as glitter glue or markers! 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Santa’s Little Helpers
Materials
- Felt or construction paper
- Glue stick
- Hole punch (optional)
Directions
Choose a piece of felt or construction paper to use as the base for your Santa’s Little Helper craft. You can make this craft using one color or two, depending on your preference and the child’s age.
For older children, try creating an illustration of what you want them to be when they grow up by adding details like hair and facial features with a glue stick or paint pen; then make it snow by sprinkling glitter overtop once it dries!
Scratch Art Christmas Cards
Materials
- cardstock (or any paper that you can easily scratch and draw on)
- cookie cutter (or other shape cutters)

Snowman Canvas Paintings

spacing the lines 1 inch apart horizontally and vertically.

Ice Cream Stick Christmas Tree Card for Kids to Make
The first step is to make a Christmas tree shape out of the ice cream sticks.
Cut long pieces of red and green paper, or use some colored craft paper to create a pattern for your card. Fold the paper in half, then cut it into long strips.
The widths of these strips should be 1/3 inch (8 mm) wide or less, so they will easily fit into the slots made by folding the ice cream sticks over each other.
Make sure you have enough strips so that when you lay down one strip on top of another one, you can still see both colors through them. If your child wants to help with this step, have him/her cut out both sets of stripes before gluing them together!
On another piece of green paper (or any other color), write “Merry Christmas” using some markers or paint pens; then glue it onto the front face of your cardholder where everyone will see it!
Light Bulb Snowman Ornament Craft for Preschoolers Using Q-Tips and Paint
Step 1
Cut the brown paint into small pieces.
Step 2
Use the paper plate to draw a snowman face on the light bulb and then add eyes, nose, and mouth with a marker.
Step 3
Place Q-tips (or cotton swabs) inside of the light bulb so that they stick out of it like arms. Paint them white or yellow depending on your color scheme for this project.
Step 4
Once all three bulbs are dry, start placing them on a string and decorate with ribbon or other items for hanging such as jingle bells if you like!
Paper Plate Angel Craft for Kids
Materials
- Paper plate (or any other type of circular paper)
- Pencil, crayon, or marker to draw the face and hair on your plate angel
- Scissors (or cutting pliers) to cut out the wings and dress.
If you are using a paper plate, then you can use a sawing motion to create nice clean edges, while still being careful not to poke yourself with them.
