8 Fun and Free Printable Christmas Paper Crafts

8 Christmas Printables
Here is a statement that will send chills through our bones if we are net yet prepared, Christmas is Tomorrow! Yeah I can’t believe it either! However, Merry Christmas Eve!

On this festive day of the year, it can be somewhat difficult to get the kids calm. The excitement of Santa Claus coming to town to deliver presents even makes me wide awake with anticipation. In my family, I have seen the excitement filter into non-stop energy. Picture the Game of Lava, where they jump from object to object and never touch the floor, however, remove the objects. The kids (and adults believe it or not) remain in the air in a destructive Tornado like force. It can be difficult to calm the masses and get them settled for a wonderful evening, unless you come prepared.

I like to be prepared for the moments of a natural-disaster energy burst with a Christmas Emergency Fun Kit. Simply fill a small box with crafts and quiet games, then, when things get crazy, pull it out and get the family involved. Be sure the activities get everyone to sit and think. I find Paper Crafts are a wonderful distraction and can easily be made with a holiday theme. Below are 8 examples of what could be great additions to any Christmas Emergency Fun Kit. Simply click on the images to fly over to the websites to download their templates and learn how to make them.

Other items that can be added are board games (avoid long games, they can cause restlessness), Coloring Pages (I have several printables ones on my blog featuring Slugterra, Princess Palace Pets, Disney’s Frozen and More), and anything else you can think of.

A boy and his dog…er umm.. I mean a Dinosaur and his human. It is such a wonderful story of facing your fears and looking at the wonder around you. Oh and it asks the oldest question known to dinosaur kind, “What would have happened if the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs never struck Earth?” Would man be the dominate species or would dinosaurs still rule the world?

The Good Dinosaur takes a look at this questions and shares an interesting theory regarding the outcome of this world, man, and the dinosaurs. With the help of Arlo and Spot, the audience also gets to revel in the story and let our imaginations soar.

But little do they know that Drac’s grumpy and very old, old, old school dad Vlad (comedy legend Mel Brooks) is about to pay the family a visit to the hotel. And when Vlad finds out that his great-grandson is not a pure blood and humans are now welcome at Hotel Transylvania, it doesn’t take long for things to get batty!

Snowpaws Princess Palace Pets Coloring Page

Newest palace Pets Dec 2015

Exciting news for all the fans of Disney’s Princess Palace Pets! There are three new Palace Pets that have been released! There is Stripes the Zebra, Birdadette the Bird, and the one I am focusing on today, Snowpaws the Snow Leopard. Each are more detailed than the past Palace Pets and Each are unusual but adorable animals. I am so excited to see Disney expand past dogs, cats and ponies to something more interesting animals like Snow Leopards and Pandas.

Today, I wanted to focus on Snowpaws the Snow Leopard. I thought with the holiday season and all the snow we see this time of year, it would be great to follow the theme of Winter. This adorable Snow Leopard is not as cold as ice, she will actually melt your heart.

Snowpaws Princess Palace Pet SKGaleana image

There is a theory out there that this little Leopard was actually meant to be Elsa’s (The Snow Queen from Frozen) first Palace Pet. However, after some debate, they changed a few things to the design of the Snow Leopard and gave her to Mulan. So let us all welcome SNOWPAWS the newest edition to Mulan’s Palace Pet Collection.

How Mulan found Snowpaws:
When Mulan saw Snowpaws peeking out from behind a snow sculpture she’d made, they became best friends. The Pets love this “crafty” snow leopard’s artistic talents!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Snowpaws is a beautiful White Snow Leopard with turquoise eyes and a light pink nose. She has blue markings on her head and lower body. Her tail is pink, which matches her inner ear. She wears a Pink Collar, a Blue Bow is tied to the base of her tail and a purple tiara sits on her head. Check out the image above for a more detailed look at Snowpaws.

Fun Delicious Christmas Recipes

Christmas is all about sharing those special moments with the family. Whether it be long distant or close at home, it is a time to get together and have fun. In my family it is also about the food. There better be Sugar Cookies, Pies, and all kinds of homemade candy. The best part is these Christmasy treats are often made together with the kids and adults. And when the home smells like fresh baked cookies, it really brings out the holiday cheer in everyone.

To help bring out the holiday cheer, I wanted to try something new and different. Sure, I am making my famous sugar cookies and delicious mixed berry pie, but it is always great to have a little variety. So when I was given the opportunity to create two wonderful recipes inspired by ‘Frosty the Snowman’ and ‘Santa Claus is Comin to Town,’ two Christmas Classics my family totally adores, I grabbed the recipes with both arms and held on tight.

Princess Leia’s Disney Princess Papercraft

One of the coolest printables Disney offers are the Disney 3D Princess Paper Crafts available on http://inspired.disney.co.uk/crafts/. I have been collecting them as they get released. Now, much to my surprise, and then again, not to my surprise, Princess Leia has joined the Disney Princess 3D paper craft group! I was scrolling through the crafts when I came upon this little beauty. Could this be their first step in accepting Leia as an official Disney Princess? Who knows. What I do know is that I have a new awesome and epic papercraft!

Princess Leia Instructions

She is pretty easy to make as long as you have a little patience, a glue stick and a pair of scissors.
Instructions:

  1. Print the template on regular paper or cardstock. Cut out each piece with a craft knife or scissors. Do not cut along the dashed lines — this is where you will fold the paper.
  2. Line up Leia’s back with her torso and glue them together so the design is two-sided. After the glue has dried, fold the bottom part of Leia’s torso towards you along the blue dashed line. Then, fold Leia’s face away from you along the gold line across her shoulders.
  3. Take Leia’s front piece and fold along each dashed line. Make each fold away from you. Glue the G tab and F tab to the back, white side of Leia’s front.
  4. Spread glue on the H tab of Leia’s front and press it into place on the H area on Leia’s torso. Make sure her shoulders are lined up correctly.
  5. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  6. After the glue dries, add glue to the I, J, K, and L tabs and press them into place. Hold the pieces together until the glue dries. You may need to use a pen or pencil inside the front area to position the tabs just right.
  7. Fold each of Leia’s arms and glue them so the design is two-sided. Make sure they are lined up before the glue dries. Attach the arms to each side of Leia’s Torso under each shoulder by gluing the E tab to the E area and D tab to the D area.
  8. With the printed side of the skirt facing you, glue tab A to the back of the skirt taking care to line up the edge of the skirt along the dotted line.
  9. Attach Leia’s completed torso to her skirt by gluing the white side of the tabs at her waist to the top of the skirt over the areas labeled M and N. The crease on the skirt should be in the back.

But his relatively quiet existence is shattered when he accidentally summons a spirit from his past which storms down from the heavens to enforce an age-old vendetta. Now on the run, Kubo joins forces with Monkey (Academy Award winner Charlize Theron) and Beetle (Academy Award winner Matthew McConaughey), and sets out on a thrilling quest to save his family and solve the mystery of his fallen father, the greatest samurai warrior the world has ever known. With the help of his shamisen – a magical musical instrument – Kubo must battle gods and monsters, including the vengeful Moon King (Academy Award nominee Ralph Fiennes) and the evil twin Sisters (Academy Award nominee Rooney Mara) to unlock the secret of his legacy, reunite his family and fulfill his heroic destiny.
