7 Handmade Holiday Gifts Kids Can Make
When I was twelve, my best friend and I made a series of finger puppet animals. We spent hours cutting out tiny felt ears and gluing googly eyes. I gave a set of bears to my aunt and she loved them so much she hung them on her tree. Many years later, the bears still make an annual holiday appearance!
To celebrate the joy of homemade gifting, we collected some of our favorite DIYs and KiwiCo Store projects that your kids can turn into presents this year!
