Welcome to the holidays. It’s time for kid-friendly Christmas crafts.
Only this year, I have a toddler trying to help.
I went searching for kid-friendly Christmas crafts, and this is what I found.
I found the cutest ornament on Pinterest, so I figured I would give it a shot.
While I am putting the final result on my tree, this is a Pinterest fail.
LOL. It happens.
When you want your kids fully involved, relax and let the mess happen.
Salt Dough Santa Hand Print Ornaments:
1/2 cup salt
1/2 cup flour
1/4 water (give or take)
Knead until dough forms.
Make an impression and cut out a hand shape with a knife, leaving an order. Poke a hole in the top for hanging.
Bake at 200F for 3 hours.
Paint, seal, and ready to hang
Then we did something fun and easy. I let him decorate some pine cones from the yar. He had fun with this.
We rolled the pine cones in white paint to make them look like snow, and I let him decorate them with glitter glue pen.

I was just thinking about doing pine cones. Thanks for the tips!
We tried the pinecones with peanut butter and seeds, but he kept trying to eat them. It was quite the disaster, paint was less messy in the end.
