Workshop/ craft Ideas for 12 Year Olds Please

Ask a Question

I have two granddaughters and we are having them for tea every Wednesday. I have thought of a few ideas for making items each week to keep them amused until Christmas. This week I bought a Christmas lamp each that lights up. Next week I have plenty of foliage in my garden plus sprigs of Christmas flowers and I have some empty candles Jars and battery lights to make a decoration each. I have just ordered a pack each of

Gingerbread tree decorations to ice. Has anyone got any ideas on what else I could do? Thank you 😊

I've got some free curtain rings that someone was giving away and some free wool, I hope to make some tree decorations with my niece. This is something good for people of all ages and albilities.

I've also saved some kitchen roll tubes and other bits to make these nutcrackers for Christmas:

It is worth checking on The Works website or in-store too, they have many different craft ideas and reasonably priced craft kits. Something might catch your eye.

Good Luck and have fun!

Have a look on hobbycraft for some more ideas and take them for a walk in the local forest to get foliage to make decorations. Enjoy your time together.
