Rudolph and Clarice Reindeer Canning Jar Lid Magnets

By Amanda in Activities for Kids

Christmas homemade

Hi! I’m Amanda, and I blog at Big Family Blessings, where I share my life as the Momma of half-a-dozen children ages 1 to 11. Life is a little crazy and a lot full- but somehow we find time to make adorable crafts together.

Today, my oldest daughter and I want to show you how to make simple and cute Rudolph and Clarice Reindeer Canning Jar Lid Magnets. 

Rudolph and Clarice Reindeer Canning Jar Lid Magnets - a simple, adorable Christmas craft for kids that would also make a great homemade gift this idea now...

With the cold weather hitting our area this week, the children and I are enjoying getting into the Christmas spirit by snuggling on the couch watching Christmas movies.  Instead of feeling cooped up by the cold, dreary weather, our movie and craft afternoons make the days wonderfully fun!

Wouldn’t these Rudolph and Clarice Canning Jar Lid Magnets be the perfect craft to make with your children after cuddling up to watch Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer?

This adorable Christmas craft for kids is also a great homemade gift idea. Wouldn’t Grandma just love one for her fridge?

  • light brown felt
  • dark brown felt
  • canning jar lids
  • red pompom
  • brown pipe cleaners
  • red ribbon

Directions:

Using the canning jar lid as a template, cut a circle of brown felt the same size as the lid. Cut one dark brown circle for Rudolph and/or one light brown circle for Clarice.

I also love these magnets for a quick and easy classroom party craft. Why not precut the felt circles, then have the boys make Rudolph and the girls make Clarice? 

 You may have guessed from my last two craft posts, felt is my favorite craft supply. Looking for more fun felt crafts to make with your children this Christmas season? Check out these adorable, easy Christmas Tree Ornaments.
