Are you looking for easy Christmas crafts for toddlers? Lucky for you, I have taught 2-3-year-olds for a long time and have many great Christmas activities for 2 year olds to share. One of the most important things about crafts with this age group is to let them create. Use materials and tools that they can use without too much help because, let’s be honest, toddlers don’t always want help, and developmentally we want to encourage that independence. Check out the list below to find the right Christmas crafts for toddlers.

Candy Cane Christmas Crafts for Toddlers
Help your toddlers recognize their name with this candy cane ornament craft for toddlers from Fun-A-Day.
This has been a staple Christmas craft in my classrooms for years. This is one of my favorite Christmas activities for 2 year olds. Children love the difference in textures on this candy cane craft.
2 & 3-year-olds adore anything that is “for adults” like tape. That is why this tape candy cane craft is such a fun and a totally enticing craft for toddlers and preschoolers.
