Let’s face it, emojis are everywhere, on phones, apps, and social media. They have become a way for kids and teens to communicate. If you haven’t jumped on the emoji bandwagon, let me show you this easy emoji DIY ornament craft you can make with your kids.
As a parent and art teacher, it’s important for me to find arts and crafts that promote communication with kids. Children often shut down when they feel misunderstood, not heard, or lack self-esteem. Making this emoji craft with kids of all ages is a great way to keep the lines of communication open and have fun.
