Easy and Beautiful Drawings of Fairies
Christmas is my favourite time of year to craft with the kids (though Autumn Crafts are a close second!!!!), I have any happy memories of dark, cozy afternoons, huddled together and making Christmas Crafts. Over the years here on Red Ted Art, we have made many Easy Christmas Crafts for Kids , and it is about time, I brought them all together in one place for you. We will continue to update this post over the years, so do come back, browse and find new additions ad ideas! I have also created a special subsection of Christmas Crafts for Preschoolers aaaaand we have a great selection of Christmas Paper Crafts for Kids – great if you only have basic craft supplies! There are of course lots of overlaps between "kids" and "preschoolers" – and I usually find it has to do with how much adult support there is available! And we have a whole section for Christmas Gifts that kids can make! Do visit that too!
Christmas paper crafts
Since starting the Red Ted Art YouTube channel, we have a newly refreshed loved for PAPER CRAFTS. The reason the channel has reignited our love for paper, is that we realised that so many kids that watch the channel HAVE PAPER. It is an inexpensive and yet versatile craft material.. and there are lots of wonderful easy Christmas Paper Crafts for Kids! Yay.

Christmas Cookies for Kids

Easy Christmas Crafts for Kids
So this is our most "general" section – just plain simply: easy Christmas crafts for kids!!!! I am sure I could have grouped them (maybe into recycled Christmas crafts for kids or similar), but I thought it is good just to have a general section.. where you can fit everything in!

Christmas Crafts for Preschoolers
I just wanted to highlight that we have a great section dedicated to Christmas Crafts for Preschoolers – this captures the "toddler" through to preschool age group (2yrs – 5yrs). Preschoolers are at the same time a wonderful and yet tricky age group to work with – they have wonderful enthusiasm, beautiful "innocents" to their work and sometimes can get frustrated as their fine motor skills catch up with their creativity. So i create a sub section of ideas JUST for preschoolers – some will overlap with the Christmas Crafts shared above, others are just for this wonderful age.. from tots, to kindergarden and preschool!
And don't forget those Gifts Kids Can Make – nothing like a homemade gift!!
Enjoy your Easy Christmas Crafts for Kids!
