Keep the Kids Occupied With Christmas Crafts

To get the house decorated and entertain the children at the same time, set them loose on craft projects they can hang on the tree or display on the mantle. Cardboard-and-string ornaments, cookie-cutter wrapping paper and gingerbread cookies are just a few of the ideas Extremely Good Parenting suggests to keep idle young hands busy as you ramp up for the holidays.
