Super Simple Christmas Craft - Cardboard Christmas Cookies



I've mentioned our love of decorating cardboard Christmas cookies before.  It's such a classic, no muss, no fuss, low maintenance type craft though, I thought it might be worth a second mention.

A couple of minutes of tracing, and cutting cookie cutter shapes from thin cardboard - the backs of cereal boxes, or the card stock from the backs of paper reams - a box of crayons, and maybe some Christmas music to set the mood, and you've got the makings for an entire afternoon of Christmas crafting...


 ...and pretend play...


...with very little clean-up required.

It's great to be a homeschooler.

  1. Nice! We might try it out here too, especially once the crazy business with a theater production is over.

  4. I've recently discovered your blog, and I have to say...it's a Godsend!!! I too am a mama of six, and have been homeschooling for 13 years. My oldest is 17, and will be graduating in June, and my youngest is one. I also have 2,5,10, and 14 year olds! You have a wealth of ideas and information all laid out for a busy mom. Thank you!!!
