Several years ago we took our little family across the pond to France and the UK for Christmas. We spent two weeks exploring Paris, Scotland and England. It was an amazing experience and we have great memories.
One of those memories is popping Christmas crackers. We cracked multiple crackers while we were there with family. The kids loved it and still both have their paper crowns from those crackers.

Since it was such a fun memory, I wanted to be able to recreate it is a bit while at home. But finding crackers isn't always easy, plus, it is an additional expense during a very expensive time of year.
Instead, why not make some easy, DIY felt crown that the kids can use year after year. Or during the year for dress up or on birthdays.
