easy Christmas crafts

These easy crafts are simple enough for a one,  two, and three year old to make!  I had the joy of doing this with my kiddos and one of our favorite neighbor and friend.






Materials needed for Santa face:

Santa face template ( got mine from DLTK kids)
cotton balls
glue

Basically you glue cotton balls to the beard,  I remember doing this in elementary school myself.  I put the glue in small bowls and had the children "dip it, dip it, then stick it" to their pages.  It is amazing that something this simple is so fun for all kids.
Materials for Christmas letter picture:
Paper
Marker
Christmas themed stickers

Write the first letter of the child's name on a sheet of paper.  Let them "trace" their letter with the stickers.  Older kids could do their whole name and write it themselves.
