Why Craft with Kids?
Encourages a Sense of Pride
Crafting with kids during the Christmas season helps encourage a sense of pride, self-accomplishment, and joy as your kids work to create some magical homemade gifts or items to hang upon the holiday tree.
Boosts Confidence
You should craft with kids because it helps give them that feeling of pride for a job well done. As your kids work to finish their Christmas bulb ornament, you’ll see their face light up with joy and pride. Encouraging independent craft creations gives your kids a confidence boost.
Expands Creative Thinking
Lastly, you know as well as I do, doing crafts with kids helps expand their creative thinking skills. As your kids work to place the bulbs inside their Christmas ornament, they’ll be using their creative thinking skills to ensure the bulbs look pretty inside their homemade Christmas ornament.
Today I’m going to show you how to make a Christmas bulbs ornament. This craft session will help your children get excited about Christmas and give them something unique to hang on the family Christmas tree.
How Do I Make the Christmas Bulb Ornament?
First, grab the 2-supplies from your local craft store, dollar store or order them in bulk on Amazon.
You’ll need the following supplies:
- Clear plastic Christmas ornaments
- Miniature Christmas bulb ornaments
Then, simply remove the top from the clear Christmas ornament and place the tiny Christmas bulb ornaments inside.
Kids can use their creativity to make a multi-colored ornament or separate the colors of the miniature ornaments.
Then, use the ornaments to decorate their own Christmas tree or give as a Christmas gift.
