Christmas time is all about goodwill and for me great craft activities with my kids. These robin Christmas card crafts are such a great way to send Christmas greetings to friends and family, as well as being lots of fun for kids to make.

Robins have been associated with Christmas since Victorian times. We always talk about little Robin redbreast and apparently postmen way back then were nicknamed Robins due to the red uniforms they wore.

People think the robin on a Christmas card represents these postmen who kindly delivered the cards. There is a religious background to the legend of the robin also, but that story is for another time.

Anyhow a robin Christmas card is a great idea at the pretty bird is one of the most cheerful things you will see on a Winter’s Day in the run up to Christmas.

I love making Christmas crafts for kids and have a few other great DIY Christmas card crafts including my Snowman Pop Up Card and my Gingerbread Man Pop up card
