Kids Craft: Gingerbread Man Felt Ornament

This felt gingerbread man Christmas tree ornament is a quick and easy craft project for kids.

Crafting with kids can be a challenge, trying to find that delicate balance of interesting and challenging but not frustrating. Easy but not boring. I find that the quicker the project comes together, the better for all involved.

With that in mind, I put together a tutorial for a quick but challenging (for kids) Gingerbread Man Felt Ornament. I would say ages 6+ should be able to enjoy this craft, depending on if the child is comfortable holding a needle. The younger the child, the more help needed from a grown-up. My 11-year-old was able to do most of this on her own.

You can find the full how-to on my blog, A Sewing Journal. Most of the supplies needed for this craft are easily found at JoAnn Fabric Stores, Michael's or the craft section at Wal-Mart.
