4 Adorable homemade Christmas ornaments for your kids:
Here are some kids' friendly Christmas crafts to decorate your tree with, this festive season.
#1. Christmas Wreath
Christmas wreath can be used as decorative signs for Xmas tree or can be hung at the door. These are made by bending green branches into a large circle.
Materials used:
- Craft wire - a round shape or Bendy sticks
- Green color craft paper
- Glue
- Scissors
Draw the leaves on the craft paper. Size and shapes does not matter. You can draw the leaves the way you wish. Apply some glue on the paper leaves and start wrapping them around the wire using glue.
I have made some paper flowers too for the wreath.
Materials used:
Divide the paper into two parts. For the flowers we need only one part of the paper. Fold the paper in half as shown.
Fold it again in half so you get a rectangular shape. Using a pencil or pen give the shape of a petal and cut it accordingly.
Now give a cut at the bottom and apply glue on one side and stick the other side too. Repeat with the remaining petals.
Apply glue at the bottom and stick the petals one after the other in the shape of a flower.
Use it to decorate the wreath.
#2. Paper Snowflakes Ornaments:
Elegant and easy snowflakes made with craft paper to adorn your windows this festive season.
Materials Required:
- Craft paper - A4 size. (Any colors)
- Scissors
- Glue
- Ribbon or plain white thread to hang
Fold the paper diagonally to make a triangle shape. Trim off the excess paper. (See picture)
Fold it in the middle. Fold it once more to make a crease in the middle.
From one side fold it so it touches the crease.On the other side you get a star shape like a paper plane.
Cut off the end of the triangles. Now you can cut them in any random shapes you like. I have cut triangle shapes on mine.
Now open up each paper for a beautiful snowflake.
Notes:- Do not cut off the center part

My kiddo loves paper fans, and with these paper fans you can make little angels and they make cute decorative ornaments!
Materials required:

Take one A 4 size craft paper and cut into half. One portion is for the body and the other is for the wings.
Then start folding the paper as you normally do for the paper fan. Staple in the middle with the thread as shown below and the wings are ready. Cut out a little to make the wings short.
For the body, take the other paper and make a fan and fold it in half. Cut and fold the fans.
