Toilet Roll Santa and Reindeer – from @kavzkuizine on Instagram
Well nothing says COVID Christmas like a toilet roll Santa! This one takes a bit of artistic talent, or you can just draw the outlines for the kids to colour in.
Coffee Pod Jingle Bells
A coffee pod! String, bead and some glitter. Genius!
Photo Frame Ornament
Make a frame from 4 paddle pop sticks, or sticks out of the garden and glue a photo on the back. Decorate with pom poms and sequins, add a string and hang on the tree! These make cute gifts for family too
Paper Plate Christmas Trees – from EasyPeasyandFun
Reuse paper plates by turning them into mini Christmas trees! Paint the plate green and get busy with the glue stick.
Decorate the Tree
This one is super easy, but our kids love it. Simply paint a Christmas tree onto a large piece of paper and let them go to down gluing and sticking the decorations. You can use anything scrap paper, craft bits and pieces, wool for tinsel, glitter even flowers from the garden.
Cinnamon Stick Trees – from This Grandma is Fun
These ornaments not only look good, they smell good too!
DIY Christmas Leaves – from stayathomeactivitymom
How cute are these! To be honest they’re probably a little bit over my artistic ability but I’m sure there’s lots of you out there who are clever enough to pull this off!
Reindeer Footprints
If you’ve ever had a kid in kindy or daycare, you’ve probably seen this one before.
