DIY Christmas Decorations for Kids: 3 Ideas to Deck Your Halls

2. Boxed-Up Christmas Decorations

That’s a wrap! Boxes, bows, and letters stack up to remind kids what’s at the heart of Christmas.

You’ll need:

  • cardboard boxes
  • wrapping paper and/or butcher paper
  • clear tape
  • scissors
  • bows, garland, or any decoration that contrasts with the wrapping paper
  • chalk

Follow These Steps

  1. First, wrap boxes like Christmas presents.
  2. Then paint or attach words onto the boxes.

Tip: If you’re wrapping really large boxes, consider wrapping them in butcher paper first. Then attach wrapping paper onto only the front of the box.
