Anyone know any fun christmas crafts that doesn’t take too long to do with children 3 and up?
Does anyone know any crafts that don’t take overnight to dry or have to be left out for a couple hours? Something that I can do with kids that won’t take that long, maybe an hour or two at most. Any sort of fun, christmassy craft is good. And using supplies like construction paper, scissors, yarn, ribbons, stuff like that. Help?! Thanks!!
Also, they have to be something the kids will want to do, and in relatively a short amount of time. No projects that take overnight or some sort of electricity (like hot glue guns). Any ideas?

If you have any old Christmas cards, use those, Trace shapes like balls, trees, stars, ovals, and let the children cut them out. Glue two like scenes back to back, punch a hole, and add a ribbon to hang it on the tree.
I love going to http://www.familyfun.com and browsing their holiday crafts. I’m sure you can find something there.
Check this out and instead of using foam balls you can use the egg cartons. Look for the yarn bugs at the bottom of the page. They have the free instructions,
