Kids Crafts Feature Writer: Susan Caplan

Making presents for family, friends, and teachers allows children to thank the many special people involved in their lives without parents spending a lot of money. Plan a day of crafting gifts, table decorations, garlands, wreaths, and ornaments. Crafty kids will love feeling a part of the season's festivities by participating in decorating home and classroom.
