Elmo Ornament Kids Craft
My husband took down the Christmas boxes from our attic this week. I know, crazy. I turn around and POOF the holidays are here. Even more than that, my toddler has already started singing the songs. You know….the ones that are stuck in your head but you’re only a toddler so you just sing the one line that you know over and Over and OVER.
It’s a good thing that I adore my little one’s off-key singing voice.
But not to diminish her excitement for the season (I mean it’s probably the first Christmas she will actually remember this year!), we have started the Christmas crafting. And when you combine one of my child’s favorite characters and Christmas….you get holiday toddler bliss. This easy Elmo Ornament Kids Craft combines a fun activity and a frugal ornament craft (under a dollar, yo!) in one afternoon of holiday excitement. So grab your jingle bells and your favorite Elmo toy for an afternoon of kid friendly ornament crafting!
What You Will Need:
- Plastic fillable ornament
- Red filler craft items: What a great time to learn more about the color red with your child! Ribbon, pom-poms, tissue paper, fabric, etc. all make great stuffers for your ornament and your little one will love being the one to stuff it!
- 1 large orange pom-pom
- 2 large googly eyes
- Glue
Directions:
- Help your child fill the ornament with assorted red treasures from around the home. Let your child take the lead as you scavenger hunt for the items! We found stickers a fabric and tissue paper and even brother’s blocks…. 🙂
- Replace the lid to the ornament. Glue on the orange pom-pom nose and 2 large googly eyes. Allow to dry
- When dry, let your child hang their ornament for the world to see!
No holiday season is complete without your favorite Elmo friend to go with your new ornament! That’s why we love squeezing our Playskool Sesame Street Play All Day Elmo while we decorate our festive home. Seriously, this guy needs to be at the top of your Elmo loving child’s holiday wish list.

My 2 year old is just starting to really get into the preschool mode and learning the games. This is PERFECT for when mommy needs a distraction during holiday decorating. I can hear her giggling to the Animal Sounds Game throughout the house!
Nap Mode

This is such a fun ornament idea! We make tons of filled ornaments each year and the kids are so creative with what they put in theirs.
My granddaughter has this Elmo and loves it!! Especially when she goes for her nap. It has made naptime much easier on everyone and we are so thankful for that. And this ornament!! I am going to surprise her with this when we put up our tree. Thank you for sharing!!

This is a fun project to do with the kids

This is a cute craft, definitely something the kids will love. My favorite feature of the Playskool Sesame Street Play All Day Elmo is nap mode.
I just had to pin this for my grandkids to make for their trees. What a cute “frugal” idea! The ornament would be a life keeper!!! If they wanted, they could put a sticker on there saying “Elmo loves you” & give it to their parents as a Christmas gift! Thanks for sharing!
I have the grandkids this weekend and we are doing Elmo Christmas ornaments.
