12 ideas for easy kid-friendly Christmas crafts for the holiday season in honor of the 12 days of Christmas there’s something for every kid to enjoy.
I can’t believe that there are only TWELVE days left until Christmas! How did that happen?!? I intended to do a roundup of my favorite 50 Christmas crafts for kids from around the web, but at this point, it would be impossible to make them all!
I am choosing to share 12 Christmas crafts for the 12 days of Christmas.
The other day I asked my son what he wanted to do for our family Christmas party. His options included reading Christmas books, singing Christmas carols, making and eating a holiday treat, watching a Christmas movie, or doing Christmas art. And every time that I ask him he chooses Christmas art! I guess I had better bust out the art supplies!
And now, without further ado, here are 12 Kid Christmas Crafts for the 12 Days of Christmas.

August 15, 2013 at 4:06 pmI don’t mean to come off as snobby or anything as I ran by your site as I am planning things (yes, already) for our Advent and Christmas season… however, the 12 Days of Christmas are the 12 Days following Christmas Day – ending with “Epiphany” on Jan 6. I thought that I was finding crafts representing those days when I came here. But, I love your crafts just the same.
