Fun Christmas Craft Ideas!

With the kids out of school for Christmas Break, we know that sends some parents into a scramble to find things to keep their children occupied and busy throughout the holidays. We have gathered some fun craft ideas from various sources that will help to entertain your children this week -- and add some more decorations to your home, too!

Ice Cream Cones Turned Christmas Trees!

This is a very fun and inexpensive activity that is a change-up from the usual gingerbread house. 

Snowman Cookies!

Sugar cookies, decorated with icing and a jumbo marshmallow for the Snowman's head.

Pom Pom Ornaments!

Elmer's glue, pom poms, cardboard from a cereal box!

Reindeer Cookies!

Cookie of your choice, pretzels for the antlers and M&Ms for the eyes and nose! 

Felt Finger Puppets!

All you need is felt, scissors and glue!

Cup Cozies!

You only need felt, scissors and glue for this one, too! 

Bottle Cap Magnets!

Magnets are inexpensive at any craft store or Wal*Mart. Simple glue them to the back of bottle caps, decorate the inside, and there you have festive magnets for your fridge!
