Christmas is certainly about the tree, the gifts, the hohoho of Santa Claus, but it is above all about the family spirit! The warm moments that we spend with our families during these holidays are absolutely irreplaceable. It is therefore important to take advantage of them and to get the children involved in the Christmas decorations!
To do this, why not introduce them to the joys of decorating and help them make the beautiful ornaments that will embellish your home during this most magical time of the year! To help you, the team Kidlee shares with you its favorite selection of original Christmas decorations.
Flaming snowmen!
What could be cuter than these little snowmen with flaming noses? To make these decorative lighted garlands, nothing could be easier! All you need is a few plastic candles available on the market.
Felt pens or a simple black marker, ribbons, pompoms, glue and a good dose of creativity. Your children will have a great time making and bringing to life their little snowmen. They will then be able to hang them up all over the house. Tuto in pictures on : onelittleproject
The butterfly pasta, we make garlands of it!
Here's a great opportunity to avoid waste and use up the half-packs of pasta that are sitting in your cupboards.
1 - First, set up a garland workshop for your children
2 - Provide them with string, glue and glitter or glitter paint
3 - Then make sure to release the artist in them!
They will all be proud to hang their pasta garlands on the wall or on their Christmas tree! Tuto in pictures on : elodiemoitout

Bling bling snowflakes
We can't imagine this holiday season without snowflakes! And even if the snow is not always there, why not make some according to your tastes, or rather, according to the tastes of your kids! As materials you will need: string, glue, neutral wooden strips to be painted with the children or already colored strips, rhinestones, sequins, pompons and other ornaments available.
