Winter has come, and your teens will most likely do one of two things: stay at home for the holidays or venture out to enjoy the snow and some winter activities. If they’d prefer to stay indoors, work with them on some winter DIY projects that you can use to decorate your home. This is a way to bond with your kids while doing something productive!
With that in mind, I have put together a list of 20 DIY winter crafts for teens to enjoy!
