Top 10 Winter Craft Ideas for Kids
The holidays are just around the corner and the winter season upon us! It can be tough to find activities that are not specific to the Christmas holiday, so we put together a list of winter craft ideas that anyone can enjoy no matter what holiday they celebrate. These crafts include both DIY ideas and kits and projects that you can find at S&S. They can be used in classrooms, afterschool programs, and make great gifts for the season.
DIY IDEAS
Snowman Ornament
Our fillable ornaments can be used to make these adorable snowmen! Fill them with white material, like Poly-fil, cotton balls, or just white paper cut into pieces. You can also paint the inside with white acrylic paint, or spread clear glue on the inside and shake glitter onto it. Then draw a face with permanent markers, or use a hole puncher and glue black dots for the eyes and mouth. You can also use orange sticky felt for the nose.
Pom Pom Wreath
These mini wreaths are a super easy winter craft for kids. Choose a color pattern you’d like, whether it’s holidays colors or winter colors. String the pom pom beads onto a chenile stem. Wrap the ends of the stems together to close the wreath. Tie mini yarn around the wreath so you can hang it up, and then add a bow using trim or ribbon!
