I work at a Daycare with 7 toddlers, all 1 year old and they dont color good by themselves, but christmas is coming and I want to send them home with an ornament, christmas craft they can hang ont he tree, example like: maybe a foam ball they painted for an ornament, but they are 1 year old so nothing WAY HARD because I have to do mostly the whole thing.
I was also thinking of making them all a felt stocking and sending them all home with their name on it. Please help em out. Remember their age and nothing way hard..they dont do much of the work. Thank you

Maybe print off some pictures of wreaths and let them color them. Cut out the center and then glue a picture of them on the back so the wreath frames it. You wouldn't have to help them much because they'd just be scribbling on the wreaths :-)

Christmas Ideas For 1 Year Old

The handprint ideas are the best. Moms love them! One year my son brought home a great Santa print they had done on blue felt. They painted his fingers white (beard), the middle of his palm pink (the face), and the base of his hand and thumb red (for the hat). They then glued a cotton ball (you could use a pompom) on the end of the thumprint.

I have five kids and they LOVE to do crafts for every holiday!
Here are some fun and easy things we have done:
- Get a peice of construction paper and let them dip their hands in washable paint then put their handprints on the paper. Put letters of white glue to spell their name and than put the paper in a rubbermaid tub and let them shake glitter all over it! My kids loved that one.
-The stockin idea is great. You can make a snack reindeer for them too, just need a rice krispie treat, pretzel sticks, raisins, and a red candy. use pretzels as antlers, raisins as eyes, and red candy for the nose.
-Coloring pictures is fun, and clean! You could have them bring in a picture of themselves and glue it to the top of a jar lid, add a string and there's a cute ornament.
-Use play dough to make little shapes, you can use christmas cooki cutters, put a hole in the top for a string. then let them dry out over night and then you can have them take their ornaments home!
If all else fails, just give them a crayon and paper and have them scribble on it. write merry christmas from whatever the kids name is!
GOOD LUCK, I hope I helped some!

Trace the children's hands on green foam. Cut them out and arange them as a wreath. Put a picture of the child in the middle.

When my daughter was one I cut out a Christmas tree shape out of green cardstock. Then I would put a dot of glue on it and let her put one of those tiny pom poms on it as an ornament. I just kept going with one dot of glue and then she'd put the pom pom on, then another, then another. She had lots of fun and was so happy to see it hanging up.

crayola finger paints... they only paint on the paper... get a big box... they love boxes... this would entertain for a long time... trust me, my son used to toss the toy away and climb into the boxes at christmas. sing songs and dance to barney and wiggles videos...

wat they did for christmas in kindergarden for me was cutting out stars and putting our footprints on them!our stars were big not ornaments!but since they are smaller they probaly can get a smaller size of star. or you can get colored cotton balls and other decorations needed and cut out ginger breadmans and decorate them and in the bottom u can write their names or it can be bells trees snowmans angels and so on!! thats wat my mom did! have a great christmas and hopefully u find something that will be better for u and the kids!!
