Reindeer Crafts for Kids

We all know that Santa Claus is the man who brings gifts to children on Christmas Eve, but he can’t do it without his trusty reindeer. We enjoy making a variety of Christmas projects with the kids, but Santa’s reindeer and reindeer crafts have always been a favorite of mine.

With the Best Reindeer Crafts that your kids will love to do this holiday season, you can see how cute Rudolph, Dasher, Dancer, and the rest of Santa’s company look. The list (like Santa’s list) is sure to amaze you with a slew of reindeer-making ideas.

Red Nose Reindeer

This Paper Plate Reindeer Craft for Kids is great for toddlers and preschoolers, but it’s also fun for older kids!

On a lighter shade of brown construction paper, trace your child’s hand. Cut off the traced construction paper handprints using scissors. On the darker tone of construction paper, draw the shape of ears. Allow your youngster to cut out the ears as well. Attach the ears, antlers, wiggly eyes, and pom nose to the brown paper plate with a glue stick. Attach a loop of string or a pipe cleaner to the back of the paper plate so that the reindeer can be hung on the Christmas tree!

Paper Ball Reindeer Craft

Let’s build a paper ball reindeer craft!

Make four paper strips. We made cutouts that spanned the breadth of an A4/letter-sized piece of paper.
Apply a small amount of glue to the paper strip’s center. Place a second paper strip, centered and at a 90-degree angle, on top of the first. Place the other two on top of the first two, evenly spaced. Add more strips as necessary, trying to keep them as equally spaced as possible. Next, use glue to adhere one end of one paper strip to the other.

Make a circle loop with the opposite end of the same paper strip by gluing it to the first end. Repeat with the remaining paper strips until you have a nice-looking paper ball. Antlers should be cut out of a darker construction paper. Apply glue to the bottom of the L-shaped fold. Place them on the paper ball’s top. Add two wiggle eyes or googly eyes to the mix. It’s finished! You’ve finished your Paper Ball Reindeer Craft!

Twig Reindeer

It’s the season for festive Christmas ornaments that are both fun and festive!

Only a few materials are required for this adornment, one of which can be obtained for free on the ground. This craft is great for a group of kids because it’s self-explanatory, strengthens fine motor skills, and is easy to do.

Reindeer Card

Preschoolers and older children can make a simple Christmas reindeer card for their teachers, grandparents, or other significant persons in their lives with just a few craft supplies.

Make two little holes in the card’s top. Adhere the eyes to the card with glue. I used a pencil to put little lines on the card to help the boys figure out where the eyes and nose should go. Glue the nose to the inside of the eyes.
Insert a brown pipe cleaner into the holes you created earlier. To make the antlers, cut the pipe cleaner in half.
Attach the antlers to the card with glue. If you’re using standard school glue or a glue stick, put a book or two on top of the card and wait a few minutes for the antlers to adhere to the card. Mom can jump in with her hot glue gun if the youngsters’ patience is wearing thin.

Santa Handprint Ornament

Make these salt dough handprint ornaments with your kids for a fun Christmas craft. Make a Santa, elf, or reindeer handprint ornament.

Allow to dry after painting the center of the face. It’s possible that you’ll need two coats of paint. Next, paint the hat’s top and thumb red, and the beard’s bottom white. Before you add any other craft items to the ornament, make sure it’s sealed (see our recommended sealers above). Fill the brim of the hat with cotton balls. Add the pom nose and googly eyes. For a mustache, stretch out another cotton ball and glue it down on each side of the pom-pom. Attach the white pom to the hat’s bottom. Brown paint the entire handprint.

Paint the light bulbs in a variety of colors, such as yellow, red, green, and blue. Outline the light bulbs with a black Sharpie, then add some white paint to the side for reflection. Attach the light bulbs to the handprint with glue. This is best done using hot glue (adults only). Then, using a black Sharpie, draw on the light strings.
