With the housekeeping, the kids, and the plethora of holiday events, it can be hard to find time to decorate or celebrate the holiday seasons in your home. It’s fun to do things here and there to herald in the spirit of the holidays. Entering the season of back-to-back holidays, decorating can be extra tough with the lack of time, and sometimes a holiday slips us by without us getting the chance to feel like it even came at all. However, from Halloween, to Thanksgiving, to Christmas, it’s important to take time to celebrate the holidays, to enjoy them through decorations, food, or crafts. Good news for you; listed below are some really fun edible crafts for October through December that are great projects to celebrate the holidays! What’s even better is that you can do each of these edible winter crafts with your kids, enjoying together the changing of the seasons.

From experience as an aunt of eight, kids love doing crafts. But more specifically, kids love doing crafts with food. They love all the edible parts, nibbling their way through the whole project, and let’s admit it, we do too. That’s why I came up with this list of 10 Edible Crafts for Fall & Winter to usher in these holidays with relaxation and joy. With these decorations, you get the change of atmosphere, the holiday spirit, and a way of entertaining the kids! Like gingerbread houses and popcorn strings, these edible crafts for fall are made from food products, but mostly for observing as holiday decoration, or at least until Grandma can come over to admire them before they get devoured!
