Christmas Decoration Ideas to Make with Kids
Christmas is just around the corner. Many families are now starting to prepare their homes for the most anticipated festive season of the year. Involving the little ones in decorating the house not only makes the atmosphere more cheerful, but also creates unforgettable memories.
We'll help you out with these fun and creative ideas for decorating your home with the help of your kids.
1. Paper Ornaments
Paper ornaments are easy to make and can be customized in a variety of ways. Use colored paper, safety scissors, and glue to create stars, snowflakes, Christmas trees, and other holiday symbols. Kids can decorate the ornaments with glitter, stickers, and colored pens.
2. Personalized Christmas Balls
Buy clear Christmas baubles and let your kids get creative. They can fill them with glitter, small pieces of colored paper, or even draw and paint on the outside of the baubles. Each bauble will be unique and special.
3. Paper Chains
Paper chains are a classic and easy-to-make decoration. Cut strips of colored paper and let kids glue the ends together to form interlocking rings. The chains can be used to decorate the Christmas tree, windows or walls.
4. Handmade Advent Calendar
Create an advent calendar with small paper bags or boxes, numbered 1 to 24. Children can decorate each bag or box and help choose little surprises to put inside. Hang the calendar on a wall or place it on a shelf so everyone can enjoy the countdown to Christmas.
5. Natural Christmas Wreaths
Take your kids on a nature walk to collect pine cones, leaves, twigs, and berries. Use these materials to create natural Christmas wreaths. Kids can help assemble and decorate the wreaths, which can be hung on your front door or used as centerpieces.
6. Creative Christmas Lights
Let your kids help you choose and place your Christmas lights around your home. They can create fun patterns or help you wrap the lights around your Christmas tree, stairs, or windows. The lights will definitely add a little extra sparkle to your home.
7. Handmade Christmas Cards
Encourage children to make Christmas cards for friends and family. Use colored paper, stickers, stamps, and pens to create personalized cards. This activity is not only fun, but it also teaches children the value of giving and sharing.
8. Sock Snowmen
Use white socks to create adorable snowmen. Fill socks with rice or cotton, tie them with ribbons to create the head and body, and decorate with buttons, fabric scraps, and markers to make the face and accessories. These snowmen can be used as decorations or gifts.
9. Cardboard Christmas Tree
If you have space, create a large cardboard Christmas tree. Kids can paint and decorate the tree with paper ornaments, stickers, and Christmas lights. This tree can be a fun and unique addition to your home’s holiday decor.
