Anyone with a 2 or 3 year old can make some pretty Christmas paper crafts! With this age group we are mainly focusing on handprint crafts. These make great keepsakes and are an excellent way to get your littles interested in crafting!

Three and four year olds are at that age when they get really excited about Christmas crafts! Another cute angel craft in the form of a cone is one of my most recommended paper crafts for this age group.

DIY Christmas Pop Up Cards for All Ages

One of my favorite things to do with paper is make pop up cards! My Christmas selection is absolutely adorable. Kids of all ages can make these with Mum or Dad’s help! The hardest decision will be which one will you pick to make!

You can make all of them if you like. They all come with free printable templates which simplifies the process.

Christmas Crafts Older Kids Can Make with Paper

You can craft at any age you like but I feel the paper crafts below are better suited to kids older than 10 years old. Most of these are Christmas origami, which helps us make pretty decorations for our home at this time of the year! These Christmas paper crafts have more detailed instructions hence why they are suited to older children.

Please let me know what is your favorite between Origami Reindeer and Origami Poinsettia
