Supplies

• Glue stick
• Tissue paper (we used these precut tissue paper squares)

Directions

Download the Grinch template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.

Begin by gluing the dark green tissue paper inside the Grinch’s nose.

Next, glue the light green tissue paper all over the Grinch’s head.

Create the Grinch’s eyes by gluing the eyebrows to the top of the eyes so it looks like he’s angry. Glue these just above the nose.

Finish off by gluing the mouth in the middle of the face, just below the nose.

Isn’t this a fun Christmas craft for kids?!

Christmas Unit For Kids

Keep going with all the Christmas festivities by creating a Christmas unit study for kids that’s engaging, fun, and educational!

We always like to start unit studies by reading books! Reading aloud to kids can be such a special time to bond together and learn about the world. Reading helps kids develop a love of reading, while also building their literacy skills.

Below are some of the top Christmas books to read to your kids!
