Grinch Christmas Ornament DIY

The live-action Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas is my favorite holiday movie. I watch it multiple times during the Christmas season and fell in love with it over and over again. It's such a great story about how he realizes the true meaning of Christmas and his heart grows!

I knew I had to make something inspired by the movie to hang on our tree so came up with this super simple craft. If you have 5 minutes and a few materials, you can make one too!

Start with a clear plastic ornament ball and carefully remove the top silver piece.
Fill the ball with green poms in any size you like.
Choose a few heart stickers in different sizes and arrange them from biggest to smallest. I did 3 stickers for mine but you can do more if you want.
Place the biggest foam heart on the ball first and then continue adding hearts in from bigger to smaller.
Add the top silver piece back on the ball and hang it on your Christmas tree!

Isn't this the cutest ornament?! I am obsessed with how great this looks on the tree and how easy it is to make.

Use this idea if you're hosting a Christmas playdate or party with a lot of kids. They will love making their own ornaments and it's very low prep for you. Which also makes this an excellent classroom activity.

Teachers, give this a try if you're doing a Grinch-themed day at school or if you're reading the book in class. Then, you can use the ornaments to decorate your class or send them home with your students.
