My cute popsicle stick Santa bookmark craft is loved by children young and old!! It can serve as a bookmark, puppet or simply a plaything!

We have tons of popsicle sticks available in our house and use these for crafting all the time. I am always adding to my long list of fabulous popsicle stick crafts to keep kids and adults busy and entertained.

Naturally I wanted to use my spare popsicle sticks to make a Santa Claus. He makes an awesome bookmark; I actually have a Paper Santa Bookmark craft too if you want to make lots of these!

My easy Christmas craft procedure is below. It only requires a few materials and can be completed in a short period of time. Preschool kids can do this with Mom’s help!

Whenever you complete this you can make lots of my other Santa crafts too.
