Kids love to use their hands and are proud of their accomplishments.
Getting the kids involved in holiday craft making is a great way for them to make gifts for those special teachers and school bus drivers that also enrich their lives. It is a nice way for them to say thank you to those special people who watch over them too. Be sure to use safety scissors and other safety precautions when crafting with a child. Crafting your own gifts is a great way to say Merry Christmas to those special people in your life this holiday season. It is also a way of giving of yourself.
