Kids Craft: Make Ornaments out of Christmas Cards

Are you looking for a kids craft for little ones to do this holiday season? Here is one that small children will enjoy. They will need some supervision, depending on their age level, with scissor work and gluing, please use your best judgement.

This craft is also great because it uses your Christmas cards. Chances are you have extra cards leftover from sending out your holiday cards. You also have received cards in the mail. So you"ve got plenty of cards for the kids to work with!

For this craft you will need:

Christmas cards (most ornaments will use at least one card, if not two - so plan accordingly)

scissors

hole punch

thin ribbon (like 1/4 inch wide) in red or green, or colorful string

red or green construction paper

non-toxic glue

Christmas cookie cutters (star, Christmas tree, gingerbread man, Santa Claus)

markers or crayons

a pencil to trace with

glitter

These ornaments are simple and easy to make. Begin by cutting all of the backs off of the Christmas cards.

Then take the cookie cutters and help your child to trace around the cookie cutter with a pencil, on the Christmas card. It will probably be easiest to trace on the back side of the Christmas card. Try using great Christmas holiday shapes like your gingerbread man, Santa Claus, a Christmas tree, a star, or even your heart shaped cookie cutter.
