To celebrate the coming of the new year, we’ve put together a super easy New Year’s craft for kids and have included the free printable to go along with it.

What You’ll Need

New Year’s craft sheet
Glitter glue
Pom poms, buttons, gems

What to Do

Begin by downloading and printing the New Year’s craft sheet. We recently signed up for the HP Instant Ink program and are loving it! They offer several different plans (such as $4.99 for 100 pages a month) and will automatically send you new cartridges before you even need them. We are now saving SO MUCH money (and time) on ink and I don’t feel guilty printing out new printables and playdough mats each day. If you want to check it out, ordering through our link here will give you one free month of service. You can use just about any HP printer but we’ve been using this compact one and absolutely love it! The color is gorgeous and matches my decor (we’ll call that a win!) and the size is smaller than any printer I’ve ever owned which is great for small spaces (or living room/dining room offices). Between HP Instant Ink and our compact printer, my printing life truly has become so much easier to print all these fun playdough mats and activity sheets we’ve been making lately.

Once you’ve printed your New Year’s craft sheet, it’s time to have some fun!

New Year’s Craft Sheet Playtime

Place the activity sheet out, as well as some glitter glue and a small bowl of gems, buttons, or pom poms and invite your child to decorate their sheet.

We had so much fun gluing all the items on the 2018 sheet.

Miss 18 months had an especially fun time squirting glitter glue on her sheet.
