Christmas Wreath Craft Idea for Kids

My front door was looking a little plain when I removed the turkey I crafted for Thanksgiving.  Since my son loves front door decorations and stamping, I combined these two activities and made a kid-friendly Christmas wreath with him.

Momnivores Dilemma’s glam book page wreath inspired this project. If you have older children, her wreath is a great option for a night of crafting. You must stop by her post because like her, I am a fanatic about marigolds.

Here is our Kid Friendly Christmas Door Wreath:

I dug through my stamp collection and picked out a few stamps that had a Christmas feel to them so my son could have at it-stamping that is! With wreaths, I prefer textures and patterns. I like how the stamps add visual appeal to the wreath.

Don’t have stamps? You can create the same wreath using wrapping paper!


  • green and red construction or cardstock paper
  • stamps
  • stapler
  • crayola thick marker
  • small door wreath
  • ribbon
  • glue gun

  1. Stamp construction paper {preferable water based ink}, unless you want an ink-covered child.
  2. Cut construction paper into rectangles.
  3. I rolled the construction paper with a marker into a cone shape {my #1 stapled it together}.
  4. Adhere ribbon to wreath with glue gun.
  5. Adhere cones to wreath with glue gun {I put the glue on the back of the cones my #1 placed the cones on the wreath}
  6. #1 hung it on the nail on the front door.
  7. Admire.

Stayed tuned for tomorrows round up of Kid Friendly wreaths!

Meet the Teachers

Back when we were both teaching, we dreamed of a website that would make lesson planning easier. We both remember late nights scouring search engine for unit ideas. After searching 1000s of blogs and sites, nothing was exactly meeting our vision: creative resources for the overworked teacher or homeschooler! So…this was born.
