35+ Absolutely Beautiful Jesus Birth Crafts That You Have To See

During the Christmas holiday we take the entire month of December off of school. We spend that time learning about the Christmas story, making treats and gifts for friends and neighbors and just spend extra time together. It has helped us to have a much calmer holiday.

My kids love making crafts so when we make Christmas crafts I try to make sure that they have something to do with Christ’s birth. Over the years I have put togher a list of craft ideas that we choose from when making these crafts. The list needed to have more simple crafts for when my kids were little, as well as crafts that were a little harder so the older kids would enjoy them as well. I have been amazed at the creativity of some individuals, and the things they can come up with. Here is my list and our favorite Jesus birth craft ideas!
