These cute winter decorations are fun and simple for kids to make. Each one starts with a soft felt circle and turns into a snowy scene with cozy characters like a snowman, penguin, polar bear, or child in winter clothes. You can hang them up, use them for classroom displays, or give them as handmade gifts. The best part? You only need a few basic supplies and a little imagination!
