Kids love Christmas crafts. Santa craft ideas for kids are an easy and fun way to spend time with your kids during the holidays. Choose from one of our Christmas craft-decorating, free ideas.
SANTA PICTURE:
If you are searching for holiday craft ideas for preschoolers, begin with this activity-Santa pictures. There are hundreds of Santa coloring books sold during Christmas. Pick a picture from the book. Cut out Santa's picture, and put it in the center of your white construction paper. Using a glue stick, paste the Santa's picture on to the paper.
Color the picture with crayons. Once the picture is finished, place cotton balls to cover Santa's beard, and one at the end of his hat. You can even glue black buttons for Santa's eyes, and a red button for his nose. Decorate the blank area of the white construction paper by drawing candy canes or trees.
When the picture is completed, your kids can sign their names directly under the picture. Take a piece of cardboard and glue the picture to it. Place the picture in a frame, and place the frame in a special place in your home for all to see and admire.
SANTA CHRISTMAS CARDS:
Santa Christmas cards are also fun for your children. Get a piece of heavy, white paper and cut the paper to a 5" x 7" size. You can fold it in half, either way - vertical or horizontal. Now it's time to be creative. Have pictures of Santa that your kids can copy on to the front cover. Use crayons or felt markers to let their creative ideas explode.
After making the pictures, it's time for your kids to write Christmas messages on the inside page. Christmas cards made this way are delightful to show off at home or send to loved ones. You can also do a Christmas craft-a-day activity and add this to your Christmas calendar. Whether you teach a class or do this at home, it's an enjoyable thing to do with your kids or students.
MAKE A SANTA PLATE ORNAMENT FOR THE CHRISTMAS TREE:
To make a Santa Plate Ornament, you'll need to get several supplies: crayons and felt pens, wisps of cotton, a round paper plate, and shiny thread cut to tiny bits. On the paper plate, draw Santa without his hat. Use crayons or markers. To add some depth to Santa, glue cotton balls on his beard and mustache. To make his beard, glue the cotton together into a V-shape. Then attach the top of the V-shape to the plate so it hangs off the plate's edge. Another place to use cotton is on Santa's white hair.
Use a blue marker to color in Santa's eyes, and a black marker to draw Santa's glasses. Use red food color on a cotton ball to make Santa's nose. You can color the rim of the plate with red or green and add color sparkles to it. Finally, place the Santa plate on the tree by inserting an ornament hook at the top of the plate.
