The kids are very fond of making bright and beautiful crafts. But for kids who attend kindergarten, it is not always easy to find an easy and successful master class. Here's a step-by-step guide to making magical Christmas decorations that will not only help create a festive atmosphere, but also allow your child to show their creativity with your help.
The simplest craft is a Christmas tree made of paper or plastic straws for drinks. You just need to fold them, cut and glue them, as in the photo.
Here is another option for Christmas decorations made from straws.
To make paper Christmas trees, prepare:
- green office reminder paper (not sticky);
- toothpicks;
- flowers or stars for decoration;
- scissors;
- hole puncher;
- glue.
Roll the paper into an accordion, make a hole in the center of it with a hole punch, unfold. Cut a triangle out of the paper. Place two toothpicks together and slide the Christmas tree over them. Cut off the sharp edges of the toothpicks, glue a flower or an asterisk to the top of the tree.

Material for Christmas trees from ribbons:
- beads;
- ribbons,
- needle;
- thread.
Start assembling the Christmas tree from the wider part - from the base, you should have an accordion, string a bead between each of the "curls" of the ribbon, reduce curls to the top.
To make the simplest kindergarten craft, prepare:
- dry branch 10-15 cm;
- multi-colored ribbons.
Ribbons can be pre-starched or you can choose not satin, but from a harder material. Tie the shortest ribbons to the top of the stick, the longer ones to the base. You can initially make everything the same, and then cut them the way you need it directly on the tree.
To make New Year's crafts from threads, pour PVA glue into a plastic cup, place the thread there, take it out, squeeze it out a little, on a container made of a material resembling foam plastic, lay out the outline of a star from the thread, fix it with pins. The star is your outline, inside it lay out curls from threads. Leave to dry when the glue is dry, the shape will be retained. You can also make a contour in the form of a Christmas tree.
You can make a Christmas ball applique. To do this, you need to attach a circle of fabric to the cardboard base, glue a loop on top, fix it with a paper or foil decoration. Additionally, decorate the ball with a bow.
If you fold the colored paper cake tins in a pyramid, you get a Christmas tree (the size of the tins should decrease towards the top).
Make three snowflakes out of paper, glue in a cone and string on a toothpick, you get delicate snow-white Christmas trees.
Glue three covers to the ribbon, you will get a snowman, draw his eyes, a smile, buttons, a carrot nose and make a scarf from a ribbon or knitting thread.
Glue the tubes out of paper, paint them green, fold them in a pyramid and fix with glue, hang a ball inside each of the pyramids.
Fashionable New Year's wreaths can be made by threading colored spools, ribbon bows or buttons into a circle of wire.
To make funny Christmas trees that resemble clowns escaped from the circus, make cardboard cones, glue thick bright knitting threads and multi-colored buttons to them, and buboes on top.
To turn ordinary cans into a fairy forest, fill them 1/5 full with artificial snow, glue a few sisal trees to the lids, close the cans and turn them upside down.
Try to make New Year's cards using applique, gluing colored buttons to them.
