Celebrate the holidays this year with a fun Christmas craft for kids that features one of the most iconic Christmas movies ever - A Charlie Brown Christmas! One of my favorite scenes in this beloved movie is when Snoopy decorates his dog house. Kids can decorate their own dog house just like Snoopy, then place the finished craft in their bedroom or give it as a gift! This Snoopy's dog house craft makes the perfect Christmas party activity during a Charlie Brown Christmas Party.
