Set
the holiday atmosphere for your classroom with Christmas
themed activities!
It is always nice to have Christmas themed activities for the classroom. Students enjoy getting involved and excited about the holiday with Christmas themed activities. You can do Christmas themed activities like making snowflakes and snowmen and winter scenes. You can decorate the classroom with these types of crafts that the children make as their Christmas themed activities. Among the more difficult Christmas themed activities are personalized glass ornaments. But I believe that they are the most fun Christmas themed activities.
Personalized glass ornaments are a Christmas themed activity that can be fun for older students as well as younger ones. If you are using this craft as a Christmas themed activity for younger students—you will want a helper or two to help supervise. The new variety and colors of paint pens on the market will make your personalized ornaments quick, easy and fun. Of course, you can use other things to decorate your ornaments like puff paints or glue and glitter etc.
Use a variety of colors for clear bulbs, or for brightly colored bulbs you can have the children use metallic-colored paint pens. These Christmas themed activities will make for a stunning gift, they can be taken home for the children to decorate their own tree, or they can be an addition to your own classroom tree. Personalized ornaments are Christmas themed activities that take little time and are fun to do. If you want make it a longer craft session and have the students make several of these ornaments. They can give them to parents or grandparents as Christmas gifts—or use them right away.
You will need:
Solid matte colored or clear glass ornaments
Assorted color paint pens that will work on glass surfaces
Assorted cups
Ribbon in coordinating colors
Newspaper or a drop cloth
First: Cover your work surface with newspapers or a drop cloth
for this potentially messy Christmas themed activity.
Second: Set out all your supplies and have the students decide which
color pens you want to use with which ornaments and think about
a rough design. You may want to have the children draw their ideas
for Christmas themed activities out on paper first.
Third: Place each ornament in the top of a cup for a sturdy working
surface. Make sure to let the paint dry completely before turning
it on the cup.
Fourth: Once the ornament is decorated and the paint is dried, you
have accomplished a successful Christmas themed activity with your
class. If you want to, attach a big bow to the top of each ornament.
Please remember, paint pens are very toxic, you must use constant
supervision when working with younger children—or just use
other paints, like non-toxic puffy paints.
You will need:
Plain white paper
Scissors
Other items (if you choose)
Some Christmas themed activities can be done with your students are things such as snowflakes to hang from the ceiling or walls. The Christmas themed activity of making snowflakes is not costly and will not take much time to make. If you get the students involved with such Christmas themed activities you can also make a fun mess with glitter! The cleanup is relatively easy—just get a vacuum.
