My daughters are a little bit older. One is in middle school and the other in high school. I know a lot of kid christmas crafts, but they want to do something a little harder and visually apealing this year. Any christmas craft is appreciated!

Something I learned to do as a teenager, that took a lot of concentration but was so worth the end results was 'egg decorating', this is something particularly good for Christmas as they can make some stunning ornaments to hang on the tree, or get a stand for the egg to have as other decorations not associated with the tree at all. They can make lovely gifts, and if they really enjoy doing it they can extend how much work they put into it creating things like jewellery boxes, etc. This type of thing can be as inexpensive or as expensive as the creator wishes. Some things I did with them (using various types/sized eggs) was to cut into the egg and remove a portion, then create a Christmas scene in the hollow egg, glitter around the cut 'hole' used to view the scene and then in a nice pattern around the rest of the egg gave it a really nice sparkle. For my mother's gift one year after I'd been doing this for some time I used an ostrich egg to create a jewellery box, lined it with silk, added the bits of hardware necessary...it turned out so much better than I'd dare to hope.
Good luck with whatever you find for them!

Beaded ornaments are quite pretty. You can get a kit to start with, and then just refill the supplies with beads and wire you like from anywhere.
Making advent wreaths from green garland is fun, too, if your family is one that observes the advent season.
Then there's always baking!

I bought some papier mache ornaments from my local craft store, I plan on decoupaging them first with tissue paper, & then feathers that I also bought.

They might try loom knitting or crochet or they could even try needle knitting. Those are always good. Loom knitting is really easy and goes quick so they shouldn't get bored
