My grandkids were here last week and we made this Easy Kids Christmas Craft. You don’t need a lot of materials. You probably already have everything you need. This craft is perfect for even the little ones. As long as they can grab and place a button!
I did a search for kids crafts on Create & Babble and was surprised that there weren’t any! I need to work on that. In the meantime, enjoy these easy Christmas crafts for us older kids, like this primitive wooden snowman.
Or this pretty paper Christmas tree:

Christmas Craft for Kids
Materials (affiliate links included):
- one sheet of stiff green felt
- scissors
- sharpie
- buttons
- child-safe glue
Start out by drawing a Christmas shape on a green piece of stiff felt with a sharpie. My husband is much better at drawing shapes than I am so he was in charge of this step. I cut out the shape and put dots of child-safe glue all over the tree. You could also use glue dots from your paper crafting stash.
My granddaughter chose the buttons from my button and stash and placed one button each dot. That’s it. Super easy and she was so proud of her tree!

Hi Jeanie thanks for sharing this pot, If children are into Fortnite then just buying them v bucks for their items in the Fortnite store is a perfect gift for them to choose what they would like. Thanks.

Such an awesome craft. DIY things that can be done in one hour really appeal to me.

I like how you used buttons to decorate the tree. Buttons are such a versatile and fun material to work with. You can find them in different shapes, sizes, colors, and patterns.
