    Christmas Crafting with Kids

    Yarn Tree Crafts

    Spending time with kids crafting during the holiday season can be all kinds of fun. It's important now more than ever, to spend quality time together making memories all December long.

    There is something special about pulling out your craft supplies and letting the kid's creativity go wild. We love searching for pine cones, grabbing tissue paper scraps, and of course toilet paper rolls.

    Christmas crafts can be made from anything

    Uses for your Christmas tree

    Kids Christmas Craft

    These fun Christmas trees can be used for many fun things during the holidays. By adding a piece of ribbon to the top, you can turn it into a Christmas ornament.

    You can give that ornament as a gift, you can use it to decorate a gift, or simply place it on your tree at home.

    I puffy heart crafty Christmas trees filled with DIY Christmas ornaments.
