During the holidays we do a lot of fun things, everything from baking to making fun Christmas themed crafts. We’ve been having fun getting a little “crafty” with our Elf on The Shelf…check out some of the “crafts” she’s been doing while the kids sleep!
While these aren’t necessarily hands on for my kids, we are looking forward to getting crafty together as a family these next few weeks until Christmas. Thankfully, Nestle is helping out in the idea department, with “Nestle Holiday Countdown”.
Check out this adorable paper ornament we will be making!
In case you want to make it too, here are the instructions:
For the template, just head to Walmart.com to download! It will be under December 10 on the calendar. A few times a week, from November 18th to December 31st, Nestle will be unveiling a new holiday treat for the whole family to enjoy at Walmart.com! These treats can range from online activities, such as holiday eCard creators, printable crafts and even gift card giveaways! There will be several Walmart gift card entry periods, with gift card prizes ranging from $25-$100. They won’t reveal which days the prizes will be available, so visit Walmart.com often to find them!
I have been checking them out over the last couple of weeks and loved the Thanksgiving Greetings, Happy Hanukkah Place Cards, Holiday Helper Prep List, and the Thankfulness tree is something I want to implement in our house year round. They have had such great ideas and fun things, I can’t wait to see what the rest of the days bring. Remember to check back a few times a week to see the newest fun and see if you have a chance to enter one of those Walmart gift cards, I am sure that will come in very handy over the holidays!
Now, I am off to bake some of those famous Nestle chocolate chip cookies! They are a holiday staple in this house! What are some of your favorite holiday crafts and foods??

The ornament is quite pretty
You are quite creative when it comes to the Elf. We love to bake cookies during the holidays and try to find different recipes each year.
I love Nestle, and we’ve definitely been working the craft vibe around here- we love to make things!!
Looks like the elf has been busy, and thank you for letting us know about the fun giveaways and other crafts.
What a pretty ornament.. I bet even I could do that!
Hahha looks like your friend gets into some trouble I love the marshmallows!!!
That’s a fun little ornament with all the sides and dimensions to it. You have a stinker of an elf over there!
That paper ornament is so cute!
We enjoy making traditional recipes from childhood days, most of them are German as both of my parents immigrated from Germany.
We are about to start our annual Bake & Bake, where we make batches of delicious recipes from my mom and my husband’s grandmother!
We always make and decorate cut out cookies with the kids. 🙂
That ornament is very pretty!
That looks so easy and it’s very cute. I want to try this with my kiddos. They’ll need something to do while off from school!
Gingerbread men and gingerbread houses are a staple for us every year; we love decorating with candy. 😉
What a cute idea, and the boys could definitely make some of those!
