Christmas in Candy Land: A Kids’ Holiday Table

Kids will love having their very own colorful holiday party table where it’s easy to stay entertained. Our sweets-inspired table decor is easy to craft and little helpers will love to assist. Create some holiday baking memories with our retro-inspired Christmas bulb ornament cookies. They decorate a tabletop tree centerpiece and can be removed for munching during the party.

Little eyes will twinkle at the sight of these glittering Christmas bulb cookies. Whip up a batch with our roll-out butter-cookie recipe and a C9 bulb cookie cutter. Decorate with vivid royal icing colors along with sparkling sanding sugar to help them light up the room. Learn how to bake up a batch of these delicious edible ornaments with our recipe and tutorial, below.

A small tabletop Christmas tree makes the ultimate festive centerpiece. Decorate the tree ahead of party time, or don’t, and give kids the fun job of hanging the edible cookie ornaments on its branches.

These trees can be made by adults well ahead of party time, but with grown-up or older kid supervision, the littles can get their creativity on, too. Card stock from the scrapbooking aisle at craft stores is easy to roll into cones and tape or glue together. Hot-glue pieces of colorful candy on for a jeweled effect. Mini swirl lollipop toppers are the perfect finishing touch. Just insert the stick into the top of the cone.
