Easy Christmas Classroom Crafts For Kids

Christmas will be here before you know it, and one of our favourite ways to celebrate the holiday season in the classroom is by doing a few fun Christmas crafts for kids. Get into the spirit this December with these festive Christmas Crafts For Kids!

As a parent, I always loved getting handmade gifts from my kids when they were at school. So as a Teacher, I always made some time in the busy December calendar to get the kids to create a Christmas keepsake to take home! You don’t have to be super crafty to make these gorgeous tree ornaments, Christmas Cards and decorations.

Classroom Activities and Resources

Engage your students with fun crafts tailored for the holiday season. These activities not only foster creativity but also enhance fine motor skills and provide a festive atmosphere in the classroom.

These activities can also be great for keeping kids engaged during winter break.

  • Create a festive atmosphere with holiday-themed papercrafts. Students can make paper lights, customized ornaments, and unique Australian-themed Christmas decorations to enhance classroom displays.
  • Introduce Christmas tree crafts by having students create 3D Christmas trees using simple materials and enhancing them with decorations.
  • Transform a corner of the classroom into a cosy reading nook with a small Christmas tree and decorations, making it a special place for holiday stories.
  • Use downloadable templates to make simple and fun Christmas crafts, ensuring that every student can participate in creating a magical holiday experience.
  • Engage children in making snowmen as a fun activity, allowing them to customize their creations and enjoy the process.

These activities are designed to be enjoyable and educational, providing a perfect blend of learning and holiday cheer.

Recycled and Upcycled Crafts

Embrace the spirit of creativity and sustainability this holiday season with recycled and upcycled Christmas crafts. Not only do these crafts reduce waste, but they also offer a fun and eco-friendly way to celebrate. Here are some inventive ideas to get you started:

  • Toilet paper roll ornaments: Transform toilet paper rolls into charming ornaments. Create snowmen, reindeer, and even Santa Claus figures with a bit of paint and some crafty embellishments.
  • Tissue paper decorations: Use colorful tissue paper to craft beautiful decorations like flowers, garlands, and delicate snowflakes. These can add a festive touch to any space.
  • Pipe cleaner crafts: Pipe cleaners are incredibly versatile. Bend and twist them into various shapes to make ornaments, decorations, and even gift toppers. The possibilities are endless!
  • Hot glue crafts: Hot glue can be a game-changer for crafting. Use it to create sturdy ornaments, intricate decorations, and personalized gift tags that add a special touch to your presents.
  • Cotton ball crafts: Soft and fluffy cotton balls are perfect for making snowmen, reindeer, and Santa figures. They add a cozy, wintry feel to your holiday crafts.

With a little creativity, you can turn everyday materials into unique and festive holiday decorations. These recycled and upcycled Christmas crafts are not only fun to make but also a great way to teach the importance of sustainability during the holiday season.
