Christmas tree crafts will keep the kids busy long after the real tree goes up! Decorating the tree is one of the best parts of Christmas, but after it’s done, it’s done. And kids with busy hands and active bodies might go ‘redecorate’ it a few times before Christmas gets here. That’s fine as long as the ornaments are all kid-safe, but with lights, sharp branches, and other dangers, it might be best to give kids something else to decorate…at least until the tree comes down. These 25 Christmas tree crafts for kids will keep those excited kiddos busy, and give you adorable art to hang all season long. Have fun!
